Database Procedures, Sessions, and Events
How Database Procedures Are Created, Invoked, and Executed
A database procedure is a named routine composed of SQL statements stored in a database.
Database procedures are created using the CREATE PROCEDURE statement and dropped using the DROP PROCEDURE statement.
Database procedures can be called or invoked in the following ways:
• From an embedded SQL program
• From interactive SQL
• From a 4GL program
A database procedure query execution plan is created at the time the procedure is created. If objects named in the procedure are modified in a way that invalidates the query execution plan, the Actian Data Platform recreates the query execution plan the next time the procedure is invoked.
