The efficient query processing on ordered views includes: obtaining a view definition for a view for database data; obtaining a query to be executed on the database data; identifying any columns in the view that are unnecessary for the query; after processing any predicates of the query, identifying any sorts in the view definition that are unnecessary or redundant in the query; rewriting the query to eliminate the unnecessary columns and unnecessary and redundant sorts; and executing the rewritten query without materializing the view. Thus, the query is rewritten in a way that avoids materializing the view and eliminates duplicate or unnecessary sorts. This reduces the number of rows to be sorted and eliminates unnecessary columns from materialization. These reductions lead to resource savings, including memory, temporary table space required for sorting, and CPU resources.
