• Key Concepts: 
  Table redistribution operation is a feature of SAP HANA that allows for the redistribution of table data across multiple nodes in a distributed system. This operation is used to improve the performance of queries by distributing the data across multiple nodes, thus reducing the amount of time needed to process the query. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Table redistribution operations can be used to improve query performance by redistributing table data across multiple nodes. This is done by using the ALTER TABLE command in SAP HANA. The ALTER TABLE command allows for the redistribution of table data across multiple nodes, thus improving query performance. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using table redistribution operations, it is important to consider the size of the table and the number of nodes in the distributed system. If the table is too large or there are too many nodes, then it may not be possible to redistribute the table data across all nodes. Additionally, it is important to consider the type of query being performed when deciding whether or not to use table redistribution operations.
