Benefits of using SAP HANA database views

Following benefits can be achieved using database views −

• To provide security −

Using a view, you can select specific columns and assign access to the users. Users can only see the columns for which permissions are set on the view and not the underlying tables with full data.

• To hide Complexity −

Consider a scenario where you need to join multiple tables using complex joins or calculations. All the coding can be put in database view and access can be provided.
