What is the view in oracle? simple view? complex view?

Can you explain about complex view to be created for fact table to join dimension tables.

[@manideepkumar959]

Super yaar,your video is very clearly understandable,tried reading many websites no one is clearly telling in website, you should have created a series to learn entire oracle na

[@KarthikRampur-ql2td]

can we use case ,decode etc in views or DML statements ? Can you do video on it. ?

[@karnarajmahajan8861]

Sir we can do dml operations on complex view for that we have check user_updatable_columns.

Hi Siva Wanted to know what’s the difference between a view and a temp table?

[@SivaAcademy]

view is just a result of query ( on top of existing tables), however temp table is similar to table, but holds data for short duration based on definition.

Hi Siva and All, Anyone knows, how can I alter column size of a view ? Suppose I have a view with one column size is 30, I want this to be 40 varchar2, can you please tell me I have alter the base table but it is not reflecting in view.

[@SivaAcademy]

If you modify the datatype of the column of underlying base table, then it will automatically reflect in view, view refers to underlying tables columns datatype only, this is based on Oracle database

[@tarakdas14]

@@SivaAcademy yes Siva, I have tried what you have mention, but is not showing the same.

[@SivaAcademy]

Is the column you are checking is actually from underlying base table, or is it a derived column from other columns?, Describe the view structure and tablets structure to cross verify the same, or cross check the datatype in user_tab_columnsdata dictionary

[@tarakdas14]

@@SivaAcademy below is the example: Create table emp (id number, ename varchar2(20)); ---insert some record in emp table; Commit; Desc emp; Here column ename size is 20. --creating view Create view emp_v as select ename from emp; --altering the emp table with ename size is 30 char. Alter table emp modify ename varchar2(30); ---so now the ename column size is 30 of emp table.

[@SivaAcademy]

Welcome, If you drop a table, the view will get invalid. You cannot execute the view, until the tables are created back, you can look into this video for some detail. kzbin.info/www/bejne/m2W5k3ytr5igptU

[@akashsinghal1510]

Hi Siva, thanks for all the amazing videos, I wanted to know how to take an extract of all the column headers and table names with out the data in oracle sql. For example, There are 1000 tables in one schema and I want to copy all the table names and their respective column names without the data. So that next time if I want to search a particular column value, I can directly open that excel and search for the column name and the table names. In this way I will reduce the manual work of searching that column name in each and every table. Please suggest :)

[@SivaAcademy]

Thanks for your comments bro, yeah you can get all the tables, and column names of the user using this data dictionary table, just check this table once "user_tab_columns"

What is the main purpose of having a view? Why can't we have a table instead of view? What will happen when we query the view? I'll raise few more questions after this

[@SivaAcademy]

What is the main purpose of having a view? To name a few, 1. Reusability 2. Display same data in multiple format without re-storing the same data again and again. 3. To hide complex SQL. Make easy for access. 4. To give read only access to other uses for selected set of records 5. Same SQL functionality re-usability, can be joined with other views or tables. 6. Display computed & expression based columns ( that are not part of base tables) Why can't we have a table instead of view? 1. Display same data in multiple format without re-storing the same data again and again. 2. Incase if there a need to store the data, then M-VIEW (Materialized view) will serve the purpose. ( Though there are other uses of M-VIEWS) What will happen when we query the view? 1. Since “VIEWS” don’t have data of its own, every time you query the view, it executes the underlying SQL, and fetched the data from base tables.

[@premgona5587]

@@SivaAcademy I agree with few points. My understanding about a view is, 1) it will be used for security purpose 2) reducing the complexity 3) reusability I would like to highlight a point here, when we say reusability means the complex query can be converted into a view to fetch the result. This is good. But can't we use RESULT_CACHE in the complex query instead of creating a view. I believe RESULT_CACHE will improve the query performance. First time when we query the complex sql as usual it will take more time but next time onwards, the result will be faster. When we use RESULT_CACHE the results will be stored in the shared pool of the SGA. Whenever we use the complex sale, the results will be fetched from here instead of going to the data blocks.. Correct me if I'm wrong?

[@SivaAcademy]

You are rihgt, "RESULT_CACHE" is mainly from performance aspect only. It depends on the use case whether we need it or not. having said that, there is no restriction to use result cache in view. If the view is going to executed frequently, then result cache would help.

[@premgona5587]

@@SivaAcademy I think you got confused. I was telling that instead of creating a view, we can use result_cache hint directly in our base query to get the results faster. View is for security purpose which means we can hide important columns from the unknown users. This can be done by using INVISIBLE column in Oracle 12c.

[@SivaAcademy]

No No, view can server multiple purpose , not just to hide columns.. You cannot completely replace with a query (with result cache). For eg, View can be considered like named SQL, you can access the SQL by its name, rather then every one to retype the same SQL, again, for re-usability & security is the main purpose of view. Result cache can aid view in improving the performance of the query... in some projects, data access from tables would be happen through view only....
