Description: The ‘View Query’ refers to the SQL statement used to retrieve data from a view in a database. A view is a virtual table based on the result of an SQL query. Unlike physical tables, views do not store data themselves but present data from one or more underlying tables. This allows users to simplify complex queries, hide implementation details, and provide a layer of security by restricting access to certain columns or rows of data. View queries are particularly useful in various database environments where a specific presentation of data is required, thus facilitating interaction with the database without compromising the integrity of the original data. In database management systems, views can be used to enhance query efficiency and data organization, allowing developers and data analysts to work more effectively.
