The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for executed stored procedures at parallel databases. Stored procedures are transformed so that execution of the stored procedure is split between a standalone database server and a parallel database coordinator. Execution of the stored procedure is initiated at the standalone database server. At execution time, control-flow statements, variable assignment, expression evaluation, etc., are handled by the standalone database server. SQL statements are passed from the standalone database server to the database for the execution. Results from executed SQL statements can be returned to the standalone database server or to a client. The parallel database coordinator can be added as a linked server to the standalone database server. In some embodiments, a session token is used to share session state between different parties.
