Routine support by server type

The following table summarizes the types of stored procedures and user-defined functions (UDFs) that are supported on various database servers.
Restriction:
  • This list is a superset of the available routine support. Some products do not support Java or PL/SQL routines. If your product does not support Java or PL/SQL, you will not see these languages available for selection in the New Stored Procedure wizard.
  • Some products do not support all of the listed data sources. Consult your product's system requirements document for information about supported data sources.
