    hi

    I have a monitoring tool that collects data from a server. these data are stored in a table.
    how can I run a function that calls an external program after an insert or update event on a table in my database?

    It would be great if you can think of some ASYNCHRONOUS method rather than a synchronous(whenever a change happen, then the external call using TRIGGER or something). You can use SQL Agent Job to call the external function(CLR assembly) to do the job for all the records accumulated for the period defined. This way you can eliminate nay performance issues with synchronous method. 

    I wont suggest to go ahead with TRIGGER at all for its performance impact which will be huge for monitoring tools.

    As Latheesh I would like to suggest to implement an asynchronous method and that can be implemented with SQL Server Service Broker + External Activator.

    ALTER TRIGGER [dbo].[Notifications]
on [dbo].[Company]
INSTEAD OF INSERT
AS

EXEC xp_cmdshell 'notepad.exe'
    it can be something like this, (not tested)
