How view is different from a table?



How view is different from a table?..

Answer / Avdhesh P.singh

A table stores data in rows and columns, while a view is a virtual table that does not physically store any data. Instead, it represents a select statement that is executed each time the view is referenced. A view can be used to simplify complex queries, provide security by limiting access to certain data, or combine data from multiple tables.
