That is correct, for now HammerDB does not partition the TPC-H schema for any database. This is because initially with the commerical databases partitioning is a paid option and not necessarily supported in all environments, therefore HammerDB built a schema that didn't rely on additional options. Also the open source databases didn't support analytic features such as column store or partitioning. Therefore for now the way to partition the schema is to use the datagen option https://www.hammerdb.com/docs/ch13.html to create and load your own partitioned schema. The best approach to partitioning TPC-H is to partition LINEITEM by date and there are a number of examples to do this. |
