Hi,
Can any of you describe the major difference between an Index and a Materialized View?

On what basis, these two objects can be differentiated?

This Question was asked a great recruiter...!

Dear...!

I hope the recruiter forced you to answer this question...!

There is way to differentiate between an Index and Materialized view.

A Materialized View can be accessed directly by using a SELECT statement where as an Index can't be done..!

Hope this is the right way to be answered.
