Handling business logic in the database is often going to be an order of magnitude faster than the application layer of some of the popular language stacks (looking at you, Rails, Node, etc). It also will outlive whatever webstack of the day (and acquisition which of en requires a re-write of the application layer but keeps general database structure - been there done that).
