PL/SQL: The Good Parts

Morten Braten will close out a year of PL/SQL Office Hours sessions presenting his favorite aspects of this wonderful database programming language.
"In a world where programming languages and frameworks come and go, I like the simplicity and stability of PL/SQL. I have worked with it for over 20 years, and I still have code that was originally written for Oracle 7 that runs happily in production to this day. If used properly and to its full capability, PL/SQL is a powerful, elegant and fun tool. Let's see how..."

PL/SQL is a highly specialized language, designed for databases. As a database programming language, PL/SQL is generally not visible to UI developers, It is best to think of PL/SQL as a Data API language. Its most important role is to provide package-based APIs to SQL DML operations on tables. It doesn’t get lots of “love” from new comers these days, but it’s still a powerful, incredibly useful language.
OTOH, id we see the other trend: it’s the use of PostgreSQL which is very similar to Oracle PL/SQL in the syntax and have other specific features. Which still is good for PL/SQL developer to smoothly transition.
