DDL stands for Data Definition Language, and so it follows that creating a table is DDL, creating a view is DDL and so on.
DDL compiler is the compiler whose job is to convert high level commands to low level commands..
There are number of commands in database (SQL) that are used to control , manipulate , retrieve data. One such command is DDL which is used for defining the schema of database.
The basic difference between DDL and DML is the commands they provide . The dml (data manipulation language) provides statements to enter, update, delete and perform complex queries on these tables while the ddl(data description language) provides statement for the creation and deletion of tables, indexes, views etc.
it contains of cammands to create the object such as view,index etc

Full form of the DDL is Data Definition Language.
ddl stands for Data Definaton Language.Eg:- Create ,Alter .Drop.Truncate Why we have called it as DDL means.... we are defining or acting at structure level. Say, when ever you create a table we are dealing at strucutre level. Hence its is DDL

DDL--Data Definition Languageand Commands for DDL as:1.CREATE DATABASE--create a new data base2.ALTER DATABASE---modifies a database3.CREATE TABLE---create a new table4.ALTER TABLE---modifies a table5.DROP TABLE---deletes a table6.CREATE INDEX---creates an index(search key)7.DROP INDEX---deletes an indexDML---Data Manipulation LanguageCommands from the DML part of SQL:1.SELECT----extracts data from a database2.UPDATE--updates data in a database3.DELETE---deletes data from a database4.INSERT INTO---insert new data into a database
Update and Alter are two SQL (Structured Query Language) commands used for modifying databases. Update statement is used to update existing records in a database. Update is a Data Manipulation Language (DML) statement. Alter SQL command is used to modify, delete or add a column to an existing table in a database. Alter is a Data Definition Language (DDL) statement.Commands that are used to define the structure of a database (database schema) are called DDL statements.
