    This syntax, allow to insert multiple rows into a table in a single statement, so for client-server applications it's a good deal to improbe performance in massive data entry. This is a feature similar to batch insert, but batch insert can return error in some rows and it's dificult to know in wich ones. This sintax has the good of batch insert allowing atomic transaction so, all data is inserted or none if exception.
