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.

这样做的原因不止一个。有时可以使通用连接查询变得简单，因为可以只查询表名而不是执行所有的连接。

另一个原因是将数据限制为不同的用户。例如:

表1:列- USER_ID;用户名;SSN

管理用户可以在实际表上有私权，但你不想访问的用户，比如SSN，你创建一个视图

CREATE VIEW USERNAMES AS SELECT user_id, username FROM Table1;

然后给他们访问视图而不是表的私权。

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。

当我只运行查询时，我喜欢在存储过程上使用视图。视图还可以简化安全性，可用于简化对多个表的插入/更新，并可用于快照/物化数据(运行长时间运行的查询，并保持结果缓存)。

我使用物化视图来执行不需要实时保持准确的查询。

在对遗留数据库进行报告时，视图可能是天赐之物。特别是，您可以使用有意义的表名，而不是神秘的字母名(其中两个字母是常见的前缀!)，或者充满缩写的列名，我确信这在当时是有意义的。
