That isn't the only way it should be. Many people refuse to put
business logic in there database because they are using an N-tier
architecture where the business-tier handles all the business logic
leaving the data-tier to what it is really good at, storing and
retrieving data. You might be interested to know that almost all large
enterprise systems developed in the last five years use an N-tier
architecture. Business logic in the database is a hold over from the
2-tier days long since past.
