what is materialized view?

Answer Posted / shruthi

Materialized views are schema objects that can be used to
summarize, precompute, replicate, and distribute data. E.g.
to construct a data warehouse.

A materialized view provides indirect access to table data
by storing the results of a query in a separate schema
object. Unlike an ordinary view, which does not take up any
storage space or contain any data.
