What is the difference between view and materialised view?

Answer Posted / anurag arun edlabadkar

Difference Between Inline View & Materialized View?

You can use Materialized views to pre-aggregate the data
and improve the query performance. When you create a
materialized view, Oracle created a physical table to hold
data that would usually be read via a view. When you create
a materialized view, you specify the view's base query as
well as a schedule for the refreshes of its data. You can
then index the materialized view to enhance the performance
of queries against it. As a result, you can provide data to
your user in the format they need, indexed appropriately.

A View is a database object that is a logical
Representation of of a table. It is derived from a table
but has no storage of its own and often may be used in the
same manner as a table.
