    The question is where is the data being written from?  If it's being written from Appian itself, then have Appian kick off a process immediately after it does the write.  If the data is coming from salesforce or similar, you can configure that system to call Appian API or send email to Appian to start a process when it does a write.

    I agree that it's an anti-pattern to put business logic into your data container.  The trigger doesn't need to be IN the database to be a trigger.
