  • Performance Impacts Related to Different Function Types
    Tuesday, July 06, 2010 12:00 PM, Online
    User defined functions provide a means to encapsulate business logic in the database tier. Often the purpose of the encapsulation is to provide standard method access segments of data within the database. Unfortunately, not all methods of creating user defined functions are equal. In this session we’ll review the types of user defined functions and investigate the performance impact in selecting the different types
    Goals:
    Identify purposes for creating user defined functions
    Discuss the types of user-defined functions
    Demonstrate performance impact in selecting different types of functions
