Difference Between a Stored Procedure and a Trigger

We can define a trigger as a database object just like a stored procedure, or we can say it is a special kind of stored procedure which fires when an event occurs in a database. We can execute a SQL query that will "do something" in a database when an event is fired.

    Triggers are fired implicitly while stored procedures are fired explicitly.
