PL/SQL

PL/SQL, or Procedural Language/Structured Query Language, is a programming language designed for managing and manipulating data in Oracle databases. It extends SQL, allowing users to write complex procedures, functions, and scripts to automate tasks and enforce business logic. PL/SQL enables developers to combine SQL statements with procedural constructs like loops and conditionals, making it more powerful for handling data operations. This allows companies to efficiently process large amounts of information, ensuring data integrity and improving performance in various applications such as enterprise systems, data analysis, and reporting.
