Hybrid tables are a type of table that supports both transactional and analytical workloads, enabling faster performance at lower costs and simplified development for developers. They offer better performance at lower costs by consolidating multiple databases into one, reducing data migration efforts, and pushing data in and out of disk and memory without worrying about network costs. Hybrid tables also simplify development by giving developers a single solution to serve all their data workloads, and reduce ETL workloads by providing a scalable storage engine that saves time and money. With hybrid tables, businesses can improve efficiency by implementing them into their data workflow, which supports various business functions with data warehouses and analytics, and enables real-time data analytics without requiring a separate analytics data store.
