Stored procedures can act on database objects independently without the intervention of the programmer. The reusability feature of stored procedures and its ability to independently access and modify the database increases efficiency while working with relational databases. Also, the fact that stored procedures only need to be turned into executable form once increases their efficiency. Stored procedures are SQL statements written once in an SQ server, restricting user access and modification of SQL statements that are crucial in the normal functioning of the program. Server-side scripting with SQL stored procedures makes maintenance easy as it only requires the developer to make changes on the server-side instead of independent clients. The restricted access also has some benefits on the integrity...
