Differences between DB Statistics and BW Statistics

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have a doubt what is the exact difference of BW Statistics and DB Stattistics and where exactly these are useful.

Please clear my doubt.

Thanks in advance

This gets asked from time to time. A search on SDN on DB Statistics will probably get some threads that help explain.

Hi Venkat,

DB statistics are used by the optimizer for retrieving data on database level.

cf. http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/19/f832ac5d4611d4aa1500a0c9430730/content.htm

BW statistics are about the usage of different objects (queries, InfoCubes, ...) in your system

cf. http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/f2/e81c3b85e6e939e10000000a11402f/content.htm

Best regards,

Björn
