Stored procedures are precompiled collections of SQL statements that are stored under a name and processed as a unit within a database, optimizing performance by reducing the need for repetitive query parsing and execution planning. They enhance security by encapsulating data access logic, allowing controlled access to data and reducing the risk of SQL injection attacks.

Database performance refers to the efficiency with which a database system processes queries and transactions, impacting the speed and reliability of data retrieval and manipulation. Optimizing performance involves balancing factors like indexing, query optimization, and resource allocation to ensure fast response times and minimal system bottlenecks.

Database Performance

Query parsing is the process of analyzing and converting a user's search query into a structured format that can be understood and processed by a search engine or database. It involves breaking down the query into its components, interpreting the semantics, and optimizing it for accurate and efficient retrieval of relevant information.
