• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MDC_PROCESS014 - Delta-merge not possible during bridge phase, expect slower performance ?

  The SAP error message MDC_PROCESS014 indicates that a delta merge operation is not possible during the bridge phase of a database table in the SAP HANA database. This situation can lead to slower performance because the system is unable to optimize the data storage and retrieval processes effectively.
  
  Cause:
  
  Bridge Phase: The bridge phase occurs when a table is in a transitional state, typically during a delta merge operation. During this phase, the system is unable to perform a delta merge because it is still processing data changes.
  High Volume of Delta Changes: If there are a large number of changes being made to the data, the system may not be able to keep up with the delta merge process.
  Resource Constraints: Insufficient system resources (CPU, memory, I/O) can hinder the delta merge process, causing it to be delayed or unable to execute.
  
  Configuration Issues: Incorrect configuration settings for the database or the specific table
