I am not sure about speed, but my understanding is that tables are real things,
they exist as files on disk and can be reused. Views are temporary entities
that are created on-the-fly and cannot be reused later.

views in hive are similar to those in any rdbms schema
normally a view is created to have a well defined interface over
an inconsistently defined table so that modification in the table
definition does not alter the view definition
another use case would be suppose you have 100 columns in a tabl
