A Performance Analysis of View Materialization Strategies

Summary: Compares query modification, immediate maintenance, and deferred maintenance for views across three structures: select/projection, join, and aggregate. Best method depends on data layout, view definition, and workload. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
