Learn Bench


Introduction

  • Develop efficient PL/SQL programs to access Oracle databases
  • Create stored procedures and functions for maximum reuse and minimum code maintenance
  • Design modular applications using packages
  • Manage data retrieval for front-end applications
  • Bulk bind collections to increase the speed of data movement operations
  • Invoke native dynamic SQL to develop high-level abstract code

Benefits

  • The Oracle PL/SQL language—a flexible procedural extension to SQL—increases productivity, performance, scalability, portability and security.
  • In this course, you gain the practical knowledge to write PL/SQL programs.
  • You learn to build stored procedures, design and execute modular applications, and increase the efficiency of data movement.
