Data skew can cause unnecessary data movement or resource bottlenecks when running your workload. Advisor will detect distribution data skew greater than 15% and recommend that you redistribute your data and revisit your table distribution key selections. To learn more about identifying and removing skew, see [troubleshooting skew](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/sql-data-warehouse/sql-data-warehouse-tables-distribute#how-to-tell-if-your-distribution-column-is-a-good-choice).

## Create or update outdated table statistics on your SQL data warehouse table to increase query performance
57+
58+
Advisor identifies tables that do not have up-to-date [table statistics](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/sql-data-warehouse/sql-data-warehouse-tables-statistics) and recommends creating or updating table statistics. The SQL data warehouse query optimizer uses up-to-date statics to estimate the cardinality or number of rows in the query result which enables the query optimizer to create a high quality query plan for fastest performance.
