There is a schema. There are queries. There is 'business logic'. There is a UI.
Whether you embed the queries into procedural code that runs as a DBMS stored procedure or into procedural code that runs in an application server/tp monitor or into the code that controls the UI (all three approaches have pedigree) is logically irrelevant.
The 'interface' to the schema is a declarative language. The box you put it in matters not one wit to the database developers, or to the DBMS engineers. Received on Sun Dec 24 2006 - 01:23:59 CET
