Re: Use of Column Store Data Type

Hi Vivek/Sumit,

Thank you very much for the useful link. I have gone through that as well.

I created a row table and you can see my definition below

So in case if my table is row, the column store data type has values like STRING,INT etc..

My questions are as follows.

• Are these data types are just being filled up in the UI and not used internally in case of a row table??
• data types STRING & CS_STRING are totally different as STRING data type is not a defined data type under column store data type?

Though these aspects are used up internally, I an just curious to know how this works.

Thanks & Regards,
