Table Partitioning Strategies: Overview

Understand range, list, and hash partitioning strategies and when to use each

Implement partition pruning to scan only relevant partitions (10-100x faster)

Design partition keys based on query patterns and data distribution

Manage partition maintenance: adding, dropping, and archiving partitions

Optimize partition size for balance between pruning benefits and overhead

Troubleshoot queries scanning all partitions instead of pruning
