    - Storing a table in a hash cluster is an optional way to improve the performance of data retrieval.

    - A hash cluster provides an alternative to a non-clustered table with an index or an index cluster.

    - With an indexed table or index cluster, Oracle locates the rows in a table using key values that Oracle stores in a separate index.

    - To use hashing, you create a hash cluster and load tables into it.

    - Oracle physically stores the rows of a table in a hash cluster and retrieves them according to the results of a hash function.
