CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE, because it allows you to create a new table or replace an existing table with new data, ensuring a fresh start for each pipeline run.

INSERT OVERWRITE, because it allows you to overwrite the target table with new data from the source, which is efficient for full refreshes but does not support incremental updates.

MERGE, because it enables you to insert new or updated records into the target table while keeping unchanged records intact, making it ideal for incremental data processing.

COPY INTO, because it efficiently loads data into a table and can skip duplicates, but lacks the ability to update existing records based on changes in the source.
