             Summary: Add a note that 'hash x range' and 'range x hash' partition for Kudu tables produce the same result
                 Key: IMPALA-10457
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-10457
             Project: IMPALA
          Issue Type: Documentation
          Components: Docs
            Reporter: Alexey Serbin


I stumbled upon on a fact that in Impala prior to version 4 the syntax for {{CREATE TABLE}} doesn't allow specifying {{range x hash}} partition, the only acceptable syntax is {{hash x range}}, as reflected in [IMPALA-7686|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-7686].

With knowledge on Kudu partitioning its self-obvious that 'hash x range' and 'range x hash' should result in the same result, but it's would be great to explicitly document that (probably, with the reference to this page https://kudu.apache.org/docs/schema_design.html#hash-range-partitioning-example ?).

Probably, the best place to add the note is: https://impala.apache.org/docs/build/html/topics/impala_kudu.html#ariaid-title17
