CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE, because it allows you to create a new table or replace an existing table with the latest data, ensuring no duplication but at the cost of recreating the entire table each time.

INSERT OVERWRITE, because it allows you to overwrite the target table with the latest data from the source table in a single operation, which is simple but does not efficiently handle incremental updates.

MERGE, because it allows you to update the target table with the latest changes from the source table, including inserts, updates, and deletes, while maintaining existing records and avoiding duplication, making it efficient for incremental processing.

COPY INTO, because it efficiently loads data into the target table without duplication and can be used for incremental updates, but it does not natively support deletes or updates in the target table.
