A view is a "virtual" (isn't physically stored) table. It hides complex details (you can join multiple tables together), provides security/privacy (users can set which columns are available for different people) and it allows read-only access.
The view data dictionary will be updated along side the master data dictionary. For example, if I updated a client's name in the master table, the view would also be amended.
