Triggers Views

Triggers in SQL Server are special stored procedures that automatically execute in response to events like data modification. A trigger contains an event that activates it, an optional condition, and an action - a procedure that runs when the trigger is activated and its condition is met. Triggers ensure that a control procedure runs before or after a statement on a table to maintain data integrity.

Triggers

 In SQL Server, triggers are database objects, actually, a special kind of stored procedure,
which “reacts” to certain actions we make in the database
 The main idea behind triggers is that they always perform an action in case some event
happens
A trigger has three parts:
• Event
Change to the database that activates the trigger
• Condition
Query or test that is run when the trigger is activated
• Action
Procedure that is executed when the trigger is activated and its condition is true
 Triggers can be executed once per modified record or once per activating statement.
 The good reason to use DML SQL triggers is the case when you want to assure that a
certain control shall be performed before or after the defined statement on the defined
table.

VIEWS
Views in SQL are kind of virtual tables. A view also has rows and columns as they are in a real table in the
database. We can create a view by selecting fields from one or more tables present in the database. A
View can either have all the rows of a table or specific rows based on certain condition

We can create View using CREATE VIEW statement. A View can be created from a single table or multiple
tables

Syntax:

CREATE VIEW view_name AS


SELECT column1, column2.....
FROM table_name
WHERE condition;
view_name: Name for the View
table_name: Name of the table
condition: Condition to select rows

E.G

In this example we will create a View named DetailsView from the table StudentDetails. Query:
CREATE VIEW DetailsView AS
SELECT NAME, ADDRESS
FROM StudentDetails
WHERE S_ID < 5;
