Answer / tdguy

statistics collection is a concept, where TD stores the
demographic data and stores. When generating the explain
plan, TD looks for the stats for the columns used in the
sql., particularly the columns used on both sides of the
join. TD prepares a estimate based on the data available.If
enough stats are not available, TD displays a low
confidence. Whereas, if stats are collected for columns
involved in sql, stats will be available for TD, which in
turn displays a high confidence, which means exact or close
approximate no of rows processed will be displayed.
