Hi Sai,
Commonly, both will get data from the database. AOT queries are predefined, reusable objects. They can be used on forms, reports in coding , workflows and more.
X++ queries are created with help of business logic and here you can create a query on runtime based on several variables. If you have the need to have a different query based on e.g. type of information you can consider an x+ query. The you can create it from scratch and define which tables to use to the data sources. You can also call an AOT query and modify it using x++, all depending on the requirements.
If you need to use the same query again and again, it will be better to create an AOT query. To build a really advanced query, you might need over 50 lines of coding, To have the coding more readable, the AOT query will be better.
