Materialized
views work on
|
|
|
the same
principle

|
|
| • |
A
Materialized view is an
|
|
|
instantiation
of a SQL
|
|
|
statement - a
view with data
|
|
storage
|
|
|

Materialized
views can be
|
|
|
partitioned,
indexed
|
|
|
separately

Used for
query rewrite to
|
|
|
increase
performance
|
|
|
| • |
Rewrites are
transparent to
|
|
|
applications
|
|
|

Rewrites do
not require any
|
|
|
special
privileges
