Murmur (Murmerhash) is a modern non-cryptographic hash function having a low collision rate and high performance. It is suitable for general hash-based lookups but not suitable for cryptographic use cases.
Vertica has a built-in function called murmurhash.
Example:
dbadmin=> SELECT murmurhash('VERTICA MURMUR Hash!');
murmurhash
---------------------
6154089896006532138
(1 row)
dbadmin=> SELECT murmurhash('The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog'),
dbadmin-> hash('The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog');
murmurhash | hash
---------------------+---------------------
