What are the pros and cons of creating extended stored procedures?..

Answer / guest

The pros are that you can implement additional
functionality and access data from DLLs from within SQL
Server. If you need to do something that can be done only
in C or C++, or if you have data that can be accessed only
outside of SQL Server, you can still provide a link to it.
The biggest con to extended stored procedures is that they
run in the same process space as SQL Server. So an errant
DLL could overwrite memory and cause SQL Server to crash or
even corrupt data. The biggest safeguard against these
problems is thorough testing of the procedure
