TDV is the layer between the application and the data storage layer that ensures proper authorization of what a user or role can read, write, or alter and handles the translation between these components into SQL statements

Pros

  • abstraction
  • row level security
  • column level security

Cons

  • user interface
  • training
  • documentation

Return on Investment

  • increased security
  • reduction of work duplication
