Automate Tasks Using Schedules and Events

Use scheduling and event handling features to automate database administration and other tasks.

• Task automation using schedules and events
  Many database administration tasks are best performed systematically. For example, a regular backup procedure is an important part of proper database administration procedures.
• Event handlers
  Event handlers execute on a separate connection from the action that triggered the event, and so do not interact with client applications. They execute with the privileges of the creator of the event.
