• Key Concepts: 
  Code pushdown is a feature of SAP HANA that allows developers to push down code to the database layer, allowing for faster execution of queries and improved performance. This feature is especially useful for complex queries that require multiple joins and aggregations.
  
  How to use it: 
  To use code pushdown, developers must first create a view in the database layer. This view can then be used to define the query logic and the code can be pushed down to the database layer. The code can then be executed directly on the database layer, resulting in improved performance.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using code pushdown, it is important to ensure that the query logic is optimized for the database layer. This will ensure that the query is executed as efficiently as possible and will result in improved performance. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the code is properly tested before pushing it down to the database layer.

  Code pushdown is a feature of SAP HANA that allows developers to push down code to the database layer, allowing for faster execution of queries and improved performance. This feature is similar to stored procedures in other databases, but with some additional benefits such as improved security and scalability. Additionally, code pushdown can be used in conjunction with other features such as columnar storage and in-memory computing for even greater performance gains.
