• I can divide my stored procedures to operate in different parts of the DB (CRM, Statistics, Reporting etc.). That's a module (call it whatever you want) - Mark Sandy

    This is where some of the confusion comes in with naming conventions. Mark's standard is great for him as an application developer since he is concerned with the individual modules and the stored procedures that go with them. What about the database developer though? Or even another application working on a different module that needs to make a change to the Customer table? It's much more difficult for these folks to identify the procedures they need to touch to make sure the impact of their change is minimized.

    Is there a naming convention that covers all situations? Probably not.
