什么时候以及为什么有些人决定他们需要在他们的数据库中创建一个视图?为什么不运行一个普通的存储过程或选择?

下面是如何使用视图以及权限来限制用户可以在表中更新的列。

/* This creates the view, limiting user to only 2 columns from MyTestTable */
CREATE VIEW dbo.myTESTview 
WITH SCHEMABINDING AS
SELECT ID, Quantity FROM dbo.MyTestTable;

/* This uses the view to execute an update on the table MyTestTable */
UPDATE dbo.myTESTview
SET Quantity = 7
WHERE ID = 1

我认为第一个。隐藏查询的复杂性。它非常适合于视图。当我们规范化数据库表时如何增加。现在,当表数量增加时,获取数据是非常困难的。所以最好的处理方法是遵循视图。如果我错了,请纠正我。

关于视图的一件奇怪的事情是,它们被Microsoft Access视为表:当您使用ODBC将Microsoft Access前端附加到SQL数据库时,您将在可用表列表中看到表和视图。因此,如果你在MS Access中准备复杂的报告,你可以让SQL服务器来做连接和查询,这大大简化了你的工作。在Excel中准备查询也是如此。

这并没有确切地回答你的问题,但我认为值得一提的是物化视图。我的经验主要是使用Oracle,但是SQL-Server应该是相当相似的。

We used something similar in our architecture to address XML performance problems. Our systems are designed with a lot of data stored as XML on a row and applications might need to query particular values within it. Handling lots of XMLTypes and running XPaths across large number of rows has a large impact on performance so we use a form of materialized views to extract the desired XML nodes out into a relational table anytime the base table changes. This effectively provides a physical snapshot of the query at a point in time as opposed to standard views which would run their query on demand.

我通常创建视图来反规范化和/或聚合经常用于报告目的的数据。

EDIT

By way of elaboration, if I were to have a database in which some of the entities were person, company, role, owner type, order, order detail, address and phone, where the person table stored both employees and contacts and the address and phone tables stored phone numbers for both persons and companies, and the development team were tasked with generating reports (or making reporting data accessible to non-developers) such as sales by employee, or sales by customer, or sales by region, sales by month, customers by state, etc I would create a set of views that de-normalized the relationships between the database entities so that a more integrated view (no pun intended) of the real world entities was available. Some of the benefits could include:

减少编写查询时的冗余 建立关联实体的标准 提供机会 评估和最大化绩效 用于复杂的计算和连接 (例如在Schemabound视图上建立索引 在该软件中) 让数据更容易获取 对于团队成员和非开发人员来说是直观的。
