You need a diamond tipped drill bit to drill glass or tile.
Drilling ceramic tile can be accomplished with a carbide tipped drill bit such as one for masonry or concrete but a better choice is a bit designed to drill glass which is much harder Most home improvement stores carry such bits and they are only a bit more than regular bit sets. A glass bit looks like a spade on the end of a shank while the masonry bit looks like a traditional twist drill.
A hollow diamond drill bit, with lots of water, cutting slowly, will do the job. Ideally in a drill press of some kind instead of freehand. Diamond bits in rotary tools like Foredom or Dremel may do it, if it's suitable to use them with lots of water.
Make sure wall is dry and has been for a while. Place plywood against wall where you are going to attach it and drill appropriate holes using 3/16 drill bit thru plywood and then mark wall. Then using 5/16 masonary drill bit and hammer drill drill holes where marked and using a little bit of construction glue and alligator plugs lightly hammer plugs into wall. Let them dry for a few minutes. Then generously apply construction glue to concrete wall, place plywood against wall and using a 1 1/2 inch roofing screw which has metal and rubber rings attach plywood to wall. Over time moisture might become a problem but it should last a very long time. However don't do this where moisture is an issue
You need a diamond core bit for the size hole you want, fasten the bottle in a drill press securely but carefully, its important you keep the bottle from moving, pick the area you want the hole and build a dam with clay to hold water, once everything is fasten, water in the dam, have the speed of the drill press at around 500rpm, now apply light pressure for 3 to 5 seconds, lift the bit slightly allowing the water to rinse the bit and apply light pressure again for another 3 to 5 seconds, continue these steps until you cut through the bottom. TIP: "DO NOT" get impatience and try to cut faster, you will only wear out or ruin the bit. If you follow these steps your core bit will last you through many-many holes. (I caution you against using a hand drill)
A 3/16 drill bit.
You can drill holes in aluminum with a drill as long as you have the proper drill bit. Use a regular drill bit and keep speed moderate.
A glass drill is a specialized tool used to make holes in glass. Typically it will have a diamond tipped drill bit. This tool is needed because glas is very strong and delicate, and a typical drill will crack or shatter the glass rather than make a smooth hole.

An ordinary HSS drill bit can not cut through glass. A diamond tipped drill bit is necessary for this.
An SDS hammer drill is an electric drill that hammers the drill bit in and out slightly as it drills with it. This type of drill is mainly used to make holes in concrete or masonry, and is able to do so easier than a regular drill and bit are.
Yes, but not with the usual drill bit. Drilling a hole in glass is accomplished with an abrasive that actually wears a hole through the glass.
You should use a masonry bit for this. The drill itself isn't so important; just about any general-purpose drill will work.
hand drill machine is a hand tool used to make holes on hard surfaces with the help of a rotating drill bit as its cutting edge
Yes you can use a drill for glass, but glass/ceramic bit will need to be purchased at a local hardware or building center. Once the bit is purchased use the highest speed setting..
How about bit (as in drill bit) or possibly awl.
This is called an auger bit, and is used to drill holes from 1/4 up to 1.5 inches in a standard auger set. ( to cut larger holes it is easier to use a 'hole saw' in your drill. )
A 40mm hole saw is more efficient than a drill bit for holes of this size.
