About the Webinar

Our Lunch and Learn session, Enhancing Performance with SQL Stored Procedures and UDFs, will reveal the unique techniques of using SQL stored procedures and User Defined Functions (UDFs) to optimize IBM i solution performance.

Structured Query Language (SQL) stored procedures help developers execute precompiled SQL code on the database server, enhancing execution speed, facilitating code reusability, and reducing network traffic.

UDFs enable developers to perform and streamline specific tasks within SQL queries using its custom functions, resulting in encapsulating reusable logic, optimizing query execution, and reducing redundancy.

Combining SQL stored procedures and UDFs can improve the functionality of IBM i solution.

In this session, we will unveil the unique techniques of using SQL stored procedures and UDFs to enhance IBM i projects significantly.
