<h1 class="topictitle1">Stored procedures</h1>
<div><p>Stored procedures commonly are used in client/server applications,
especially in the area of online transaction processing (OLTP), since they
can provide performance, transaction-integrity and security benefits.</p>
<div class="section"><p>For information regarding specific SQL commands that are used
in the examples of stored procedures, see the <em>SQL Reference</em> book. View
an HTML online version of the book, or print a PDF version, from the <a href="../db2/rbafzmst02.htm">DB2
Universal Database™ for iSeries™ SQL Reference</a> iSeries Information Center topic.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><p>The illustration below shows an application where one transaction
consists of four separate I/O operations, each that requires an SQL statement
to be processed. In the client/server environment, this requires a minimum
of eight messages between the server and the client, as shown. This can represent
significant overhead, especially where the communication speed is slow (for
example over a dial-up line), or where the turnaround speed for the connection
is slow (for example over a satellite link).</p>

</div>
<div class="section"><p>The following illustration shows the same transaction by a stored
procedure on the server. As illustrated, the communications traffic has been
reduced to a single message pair. There are additional benefits. For example,
the procedure can arrange to send back only the data that is absolutely required
(for example, just a few characters from a long column). A DB2<sup>®</sup> for <span class="keyword">i5/OS™</span> stored procedure can be any iSeries program,
and does not have to use SQL for data access.</p>
