Add the concept of Views #60

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

It would be great if BigQuery had the concept of "Views" or something similar.

The view would be called like a table. Ex:
Select * from MyView;

A view would point to an already defined(saved) select statement. That select 
statement could be a union, a select statement with a where clause, etc...

I don't know what you think about this idea and if you believe that would be 
possible at some point?

Thank you

Any news regarding this idea?
Do you thing it would be something possible.

We would like to have some way to facilitate splitting a table into smaller 
tables (to lower the cost of the queries), but we also want to keep the 
flexibility to query all the tables when necessary.
