0022 ### Description
0023
0024 `UNCACHE TABLE` removes the entries and associated data from the in-memory and/or on-disk cache for a given table or view. The
0025 underlying entries should already have been brought to cache by previous `CACHE TABLE` operation. `UNCACHE TABLE` on a non-existent table throws an exception if `IF EXISTS` is not specified.
