The trend has been to move functionality associated with stored procedures, triggers and views out of the database management layer and into objects, specifically Enterprise Java Beans.

This trend is evident in SAP products where if you reverse engineer the tables for a particular schema you do not get a nice entity relationship model. Instead you get just a bunch of entities (tables) with no relationships.

The taking away of the business rules from the database makes the database a commodity. It also eliminates the next most hated member of the IT shop. The first is of course the evil network administrator whoes influence is much diminished by web style development. But the next is the data base administrator around who all developers must work --- unless data validation, referential integrity, constraints etc are implemented in objects rather than through, triggers, foreign keys, stored procedures and views.

We should pay some attention to EJBs now. The third iteration of EJBs is coming out in tools right now.
