50 West 23rd Str
4th Floor
New York, NY 10010
Topic:
ORMs: The Good, The Bad, and the Necessary (with PostgreSQL Considerations)
Object-Relational Mappers (ORMs) have become an important tool in speeding up the development for application developers by providing them an interface in their native programming language to access a database without the use of SQL. This talk will provide an overview of ORMs, discuss various design patterns used for creating ORMs, and review some of the strengths and weaknesses of this technology. One focus will be on improving ORM performance with PostgreSQL by designing it for application developers to take advantage of PostgreSQL specific features with relative ease.
Speaker: Jonathan S. Katz
