Answer / santosh kumar

View is the logical representation of subset of data from
one or more table.(This is database object but depends on
the table).
there are two types of view.....
1. simple view
2. complex view
SIMPLE VIEW
note:- 1. based on one table.
2. We can perform dml in this.
3. can not contain group function.
4. can not contain group by clause.
5. dml can not be perform when the base table have
not null(primary key, not null) constraint on
any column and that is not selected in the view.

COMPLEX VIEW
note:- 1. based on one or more table.
2. We can perform dml in this always.
3. can contain group function.
4. can contain group by clause.

Answer / satish asnani

Answer from Santosh Kumar is correct with slight
improvement. The simple views are actually called Updateable
Views and Complex views are called Non-Updateable Views.
Updateable means we can perform DML operations(Insert,
Update & Delete) on such views. Non-Updateable means we
cannot perform DML operations.

Answer / subbu

Yes the above is true. In simple a View is nothing but a
snapshot of original table/tables.

autonomous transaction in trigger we can update complex view

Santosh Kumar

Answer / satish asnani

Simple and complex views do not occupy HD space. The data
remains with the base table and views are just stored
queries which fetch data from base tables. But Materialized
Views maintain a copy of the records in their own space.
That is Materialized views as name suggests store a local
copy of the records from base tables and definitely occupy
HD space.
