Benefits of using triggers in your business
Triggers offer benefits to your business. These benefits are:
- Faster application development. Because the database stores triggers, you do not have to code the trigger actions into each database application.
- Global enforcement of business rules. Define a trigger once and then reuse it for any application that uses the database.
- Easier maintenance. If a business policy changes, change only the corresponding trigger program instead of each application program.
- Improve performance in client/server environment. All rules run in the server before the result returns.
