As far as DataSplice is concerned, a view is the basic object that users see. In essence, a view is a configurable "window" into a database. This basically consists of a SQL statement defining the target data for the view as well as additional meta-information relating to how the view should be accessed and manipulated be the user. Unfortunately view is a fairly overloaded word in the context of databases. It is also usually used to describe a pre-configured statement in a database to provide a view of data that is not explicitly stored in a single table. In this context it is similar to a DataSplice view (a SQL Statement) except it does not define any of the additional information present in DataSplice views. In fact, DataSplice views can certainly be set up to access database views simply by providing a SQL statement that queries the latter. In many cases where complex SQL is needed to provide the desired data this is necessary for DataSplice to be able to perform the correct query. More Information
