A named query, or any other form of named SQL statement.

It could be a view (a select query, stored as a database object) or a procedure (a grouped set of sql statements that might involve changes that are written to the database, possibly a simple insert, or simple update, or simple delete, but potentially much more complex).

DML is one class of SQL statements, and DDL is another. The two together encompass most of your common, practical database operations.
