What is view in sql?

Answer Posted / Gaurav Kumar

In SQL, a view is a virtual table based on the result-set of an SQL statement. It contains rows and columns, just like a real table. However, it does not store data physically. Instead, it is used to improve query performance by storing the SELECT statement that defines the view.
