To supplement the trigger mechanism discussed in <a class="xref" href="triggers.html" title="Chapter 39. Triggers">Chapter 39</a>,
<span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span> also provides event triggers. Unlike regular
triggers, which are attached to a single table and capture only DML events,
event triggers are global to a particular database and are capable of
capturing DDL events.
</p><p>
Like regular triggers, event triggers can be written in any procedural
language that includes event trigger support, or in C, but not in plain
SQL.
