What is a View ? Can we insert, Update and delete a view?..

Answer / Sanjay Rathour

A view is a virtual table based on the result-set of an SQL statement. It does not store data itself but provides a simplified and secured way to query data from one or more tables. A view can be used to restrict access to specific columns, hide sensitive data, improve readability, and simplify complex queries. Views cannot be directly inserted, updated, or deleted because they do not contain actual data. However, you can perform these operations on the base table(s) underlying the view.
