Is there a database where you can write stored procedures in C or C++? Usually such languages can't segfault or buffer overflow.

A common example might be a hashing function that you want the DB to understand.[2] That said, I bet just about every database supports something similar (and postgres' equivalent has already been provided by a sibling comment). 1: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/create-function-udf.html https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/create-function-udf.... 2: https://www.percona.com/doc/percona-server/LATEST/management/udf_percona_toolkit.html https://www.percona.com/doc/percona-server/LATEST/management...
- narag 7y agoIs there a database where you can write stored procedures in C or C++? Most of them. SQL-like languages like Oracle's PL/SQL are preferred, not because of any security problems but simply because it's much easier, specially when working with data sets.
