Tables in the Object File System have different performance characteristics compared to tables in Block Storage.

Some of the limitations of Object File System tables:
  • No primary index
  • No secondary indexes
  • No hash indexes

When creating an Object File System table, the STORAGE option is a valid table level option in the CREATE TABLE statement.

Storage can also be defined at the database or user level.
