Here's our take.

Subqueries

Nice Pick

Pros

• g
• Related to: sql, relational-databases

Cons

• Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case

Views

Developers should use views to encapsulate complex joins, aggregations, or calculations into reusable queries, improving code maintainability and reducing redundancy in applications

Pros

• They are essential for implementing row-level or column-level security by exposing only necessary data to users or applications, and for creating simplified interfaces for reporting or analytics without modifying the underlying schema
• Related to: sql, relational-databases

Cons

• Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case

The Verdict

Use Subqueries if: You want g and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.

Use Views if: You prioritize they are essential for implementing row-level or column-level security by exposing only necessary data to users or applications, and for creating simplified interfaces for reporting or analytics without modifying the underlying schema over what Subqueries offers.

The Bottom Line

Subqueries wins
