Hash partitioning maps data to partitions based on a hashing algorithm that Oracle applies to the partitioning key that you identify. The hashing algorithm evenly distributes rows among partitions, giving partitions approximately the same size.
Hash partitioning is the ideal method for distributing data evenly across devices. Hash partitioning is also an easy-to-use alternative to range-partitioning, especially when the data to be partitioned is not historical or has no obvious partitioning key.
Here is the diagrammatic representation of the hash-based partitioning strategy:
Hash-based partitioning, in contrast, ensures ...
