What is the difference between view and table ?
Answer Posted / baskar
VIRTUAL is an important word to be used that matches for
defining a VIEW. View just holds a pre-compiled query which
pulls records from a table or combination of joined tables.
A view can also be used to query which can then be used in a
view. So to define, A VIEW is a virtual representation of
data from real tables/views which is pre-compiled and
secured. The retrieval of records would be quicker in a view
than a table based query. The main usage of view is to hide
few columns from the table which you may not want to share
with the users who wants only the required and relevant data.
TABLE is a normal real time table which really hold data in
the database.
Functionality wise, we may not pass variables in a view and
order by clause cannot be used in a view.
