RE: Difference between a View and Materialized View

View is nothing but a set a sql statements together which join single or multiple tables and shows the data .. however views do not have the data themselves but point to the data .

Whereas Materialized view is a concept mainly used in Datawarehousing .. these views contain the data itself .Reason being it is easier/faster to access the data.The main purpose of Materialized view is to do calculations and display data from multiple tables using joins .

RE: Difference between a View and Materialized View

ANS:

view: View is a logical or virtual memory which is based on select query

and the simple view is the view in which we can not make DML command if the

view is created by multiple tables.

Materialize veiw: It works faster than simple Its works as snap shot and used for security purposes and we can make DML command in materialize view
