Important
The SingleStore 9.1 release candidate (RC) is available now. It will be promoted to general availability (GA) soon and at that time it will be renamed to SingleStore 10.
In the interim, SingleStore 9.1 RC can be used to preview, evaluate, and provide feedback on the new and upcoming features in SingleStore 10, while SingleStore 9.0 is recommended for production workloads.
SHA1
On this page
The SHA1() function hashes the given string or binary data using the so-called secure hash algorithm, version 1.
It is present in SingleStore mainly for backwards compatibility and for systems which require a good enough
hashing function and can tolerate collisions.
Syntax
SHA1(plaintext)SHA(plaintext)
Arguments
-
plaintext: the data to hash.
Return Type
40 lower case hexadecimal digits corresponding to the 160-bit binary hash value.
Examples
SELECT SHA1('ohai'), SHA('ohai');
+------------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
