Describe the feature

Right now we have statistics on the table level. But it would also be nice to have statistics on a column level. Describing the max and min value, the number of null values, the column length, etc.

Describe alternatives you've considered

It is relative easy to get these numbers using Spark, by triggering an ANALYZE TABLE <tablename> COMPUTE STATISTICS. The issue is that this is not supported by the UI.

Additional context

No.

Who will this benefit?

Everyone, this would be a great feature, and the next step in data governance.
