This morning I've been reading about CRUD and writing RESTful services and so on (not completely understanding it all)


Rest applies to the application server not to the database. The application server deals with a data model where objects in that often but not always map to tables in the database. It that 'not always' part that means that the application server should have its own data model and then map that to the database.

The stored procedures provide the access layer to the database. Far as I am concerned they (stored procs) server the same purpose as any other application layer so I am in favor of them. Additionally I consider the permissions possible with them a win.

I'm not really sure what they'll be expecting.


First thing of course is that someone, somewhere needs to come up with a data model. Doesn't need to be formal but a team (more than one person) can't work without a division of labor and so they need to target a data model and so do you. You should of course be prepared to participate in that process. You might even be the sole person given that you have experience both in database and application development.

Your role other than that would be in insuring that the data model is not going to impose problems such as performance. Then normal DDL development with any additional database tests (archive, back up, etc) that would normally be identified in any production system.

Depending on the team/project you might also be in charge of writing the application side abstraction layer - the thing that interfaces with the stored proc.

Of course one potential problem with all of the above is that one of the incoming people already has an idea how the database should be done and it doesn't jive with your view.
