Hi Forum - We are TD 15.00. Can a table be partitioned on a randomly generated alpha-numeric VARCHAR column? Our application generates this alpha-numeric value that gets inserted in the table when any user hits the application. The table is quite large with 1.2B records. The data looks something like this.

458CBD5E-6740-C755-6876-3BFDEC8B8151

I don't see any value in making this column a PPI as it is a unique column, however curious if this can be used as PPI.

Thanks
