2.what is skew factor?
how it's working explain brefily

Answer Posted / vinay sir(datawarehousing tech

ActivityCount:The number of rows processed in the previous
sql statement it defines.
EG: if there is a table party is having 14 rows then
SELECT * FROM PARTY;
.ACTIVITYCOUNT= 14

Skewfactor:
It tells the distribution of the rows.
-->If uniformly distributed(normal distribution) skew
factor is 0.
-->Skew factor is the reversal of Parallel efficiency.(if
skew factor is 10 then parallel effciency is 90).

There is aformula to identify the skewness.
Please find the below.
SELECT TableName,SUM(CurrentPerm) AS
CurrentPerm,SUM(PeakPerm) AS PeakPerm,(100 -
(AVG(CurrentPerm)/MAX(CurrentPerm)*100)) AS SkewFactor
FROM Dbc.TableSize
WHERE DataBaseName = 'VINAY'
GROUP BY 1 ORDER BY 1
