There are least 10 Procedural Languages available for PostGreSQL. The one that comes with the installation is PL/pgSQL.

Which ones do you use and why?

Thanks,

John Townsend

PL/pgSQL and PL/perlu are the only ones I use.  I use PL/perlu primarily to launch shell scripts from triggers, for example to update an external website when a row in a table has been inserted, deleted or updated.
