Answer / adi
explain gives the execution strategy means what are the
different steps that the query will go through.
HIGH CONFIDENCE:Statistics are collected.
LOW CONFIDENCE:Statistics are not collected. But the where
condition is having the condition on indexed column. Then
estimations can be based on sampling.
NO CONFIDENCE:Statistics are not collected and the
condition is on non indexec column.

Answer / yuvaevergreen
The explain generally displays the plan which would be
prepared by Optimizer.We can say that(though not accurate)
plan would be the steps followed by Teradata to solve a
query.Confidence levels indicate how well the optimizer is
aware about the demographic data for a particular step.
>>High confidence: Means the optimizer know about the no of
rows that would be returned as a result of that step.
Examples would be when PI statistics exist when the column
or range stats exist or no join involved.
>>Low confidence: Some stats available. Join and stats
available on both sides of the join.
>>No confidence: No stats available. Join involved.
