Scaling up Cardinality Estimates in 12.1.0.2
Scaling up Cardinality Estimates in 12.1.0.2 Topic: Counting the number of distinct values (NDV) for a table column has important applications in the database domain, ranging from query optimization to optimizing reports for large data warehouses. However the legacy SQL method of using SELECT COUNT (DISTINCT <COL>) can be very slow. This is a well
