When should you use java stored procedures with an Oracle database … what are the drawbacks? [closed]

Answer 1

Advantages:

• Can share identical application logic in client and database
• Access to the Java API. Watch out for which java version each database supports - I believe 10g only supports 1.4 (which means at my work we have to be very careful since our main codebase has recently moved to 1.5).

Disadvantages:

• Java stored procedures doing lots of database access can be quite slow
• Harder to deploy your code
