The optimizer cost model relies on statistics collected about the objects involved in a query, and the database and host where the query runs.
Statistics are critical to the optimizer‘s ability to pick the best execution plan for a SQL statement.
Optimizer statistics include the following:
Table statistics
Number of rows
Number of blocks
Average row length
Column statistics
Number of distinct values (NDV) in a column
Number of nulls in a column
Data distribution (histogram)
Extended statistics
Index statistics
Number of leaf blocks
Number of levels
Index clustering factor
System statistics
I/O performance and utilization
CPU performance and utilization
As shown in Figure 10-1, the database stores optimizer statistics for tables, columns, indexes, and the system in the data dictionary. You can access these statistics using data dictionary views.
