    Skinny Table : It is a custom table in the Force.com platform that contains a subset of fields from a standard or custom base Salesforce object. It can improve the performance of  read-only operations.It don’t get copied over to sandbox organizations. It can also contain encrypted data.

    In Salesforce, skinny tables are used to access frequently used fields and to avoid joins.

    Considerations for skinny tables:

    1. Skinny tables can contain a maximum of 100 columns.
    2. Skinny tables cannot contain fields from other objects.
    3. For full sandboxes: Skinny tables are copied to your Full sandbox organizations
