Foil 21 Why Use PL/SQL ?

From Untitled presentation ARL Database Tutorial -- February 98. by Gang Cheng, C.W. Ou, Geoffrey C. Fox
Performance: tends to execute faster than regular SQL code becuse it doesn't need to be parsed and interpreted before executing
Portable across all Oracle platforms: resides completely inside the database thus is 100% portable to any platform that Oracle7 runs on
Modularity: has procedure,package etc mechanisms for software development in modules
Why not? Not portable to other databases!
