Calling Stored procedure within the Orcale Server or outside client

[aadilnw]

Hi all,

I have liitle confusion about the stored procedures. I am doing the
Database purging using stored procedures in Oracle 9g. can you tell is
it better to call stored procedures from outside client which i will
take care of the flow in which stored procedues are called or call it
from JAVA STORED PROCEDURS loaded in the database, which will take
care of flow in which stored procs will get executed which inturn is
set by UNIX CRON

I do not think there are any big difference on whether the controlling
Java code is external or internal.

Performance may be slightly better if it is internal.
