I don't think that there is a complete table to show the exact differences.

But the documentation is a good starting place:

If you had a more specific requirement, it would be easier to reply....

SQL is run by the internal SAS ANSI SQL parser, fedSQL is run by the FBI.

Anyways, the manual clearly denotes what each one is for far better than we could:

Another document that shows a good comparison between the 2 Procedures is called “Anything You Can Do I Can Do Better: PROC FEDSQL VS PROC SQL”
