PostgreSQL Stored Procedures
PostgreSQL stored procedures allow you to automatically convert data from one form to another. For example, if a sensor outputs Celcius and you wanted it stored as Farenheit, PostgreSQL stored procedures can do it automatically. Find out more in the Creating new PostgreSQL stored procedures HOWTO.
