PLAN_TABLE_DATA

PLAN_TABLE_DATA stores plan information collected by EXPLAIN PLAN. Different from the PLAN_TABLE view, the system catalog PLAN_TABLE_DATA stores EXPLAIN PLAN information collected by all sessions and users.

NOTE:
PLAN_TABLE_DATA records data of all users and sessions on the current node. Only administrators can access all the data. Common users can view their own data in the PLAN_TABLE view.
Data is automatically inserted into PLAN_TABLE_DATA after EXPLAIN PLAN is executed. Therefore, do not manually insert data into or update data in PLAN_TABLE_DATA. Otherwise, data in PLAN_TABLE_DATA may be disordered. To delete data from PLAN_TABLE_DATA, you are advised to use the PLAN_TABLE view.
Information in the statement_id, object_name, object_owner, and projection columns is stored in letter cases specified by users and information in other columns is stored in uppercase.
