Views, Synonyms, and Sequences
Darl Kuhn · Apress eBooks · 2013
This chapter focuses on views, synonyms, and sequences. Views are used extensively in reporting applications and also to present subsets of data to users. Synonyms provide a method of transparently allowing users to display and use other users’ objects. Sequences are often utilized to generate unique integers that are used to populate primary key and foreign key values. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
