If you want your app to be scalable to high-end databases, use Remote Views with the assumption that you manipulate data using ANSI SQL.

Using traditional approach of manipulating data in VFP is still faster than using VIEWS. But, if you are thinking of scalability and C/S approach, then use views.

View is just one of the several mechanisms available to manipulate data whether VFP data or from any server based databases. Look also into SQL Pass Through, ADO, Store Procedures, etc.

Local Views is directly connecting to VFP database table without using ODBC. Use ODBC, then your View becomes Remote.
