Distributed relational database statements

The statements included with the SQL language specifically support a distributed relational database.

These statements include:

  • CONNECT
  • SET CONNECTION
  • RELEASE
  • DISCONNECT
  • DROP PACKAGE
  • GRANT EXECUTE ON PACKAGE
  • REVOKE EXECUTE ON PACKAGE

The SQL CALL statement can be used locally, but its primary purpose is to allow a procedure to be called on a remote system.
