If all you're looking for is to ensure both hashes are the same, then I'd highly recommend Data::Compare:

use strict;
use warnings;

use Data::Compare;

my %DS1=( PERL => [
        {TABLES=>{ TABSCHEMA=>"VARCHAR(128)", TABNAME=>"VARCHAR(128)",
+ }}, # Tables and Columns are names of the tables.
        {COLUMNS=>{ TABSCHEMA=>"VARCHAR(128)", TABNAME=>"VARCHAR(128)"
+, COLNAME=>"VARCHAR(128)", PARTKEYSEQ=>"SMALLINT", }}
    ]
);

my %DS2=( PERL => [
        {TABLES=>{ TABSCHEMA=>"VARCHAR(256)", TABNAME=>"VARCHAR(128)",
+ }}, # Tables and Columns are names of the tables.
        {COLUMNS=>{ TABSCHEMA=>"VARCHAR(256)", TABNAME=>"VARCHAR(128)"
+, COLNAME=>"VARCHAR(128)", PARTKEYSEQ=>"SMALLINT", }}
    ]
);

my $same = Compare(\%DS1, \%DS2);

print "$same\n"; # 0 (ie. false)
