DELETE TABLE is a logged operation, so the deletion of each
row gets logged in the transaction log, which makes it
slow.
TRUNCATE TABLE also deletes all the rows in a table, but it
won't log the deletion of each row, instead it logs the
deallocation of the data pages of the table, which makes it
faster.
The records deleted through DELETE can be roll backed.
The records deleted through TRUNCATE can't be roll back.
If we are using TRUNCATE ina Transaction then only we can
do the roll back else not.
Both will delete the data but not the stucture of the table.
