How good is ORM in Practice
hardcodrSep 22 2004 — edited Sep 23 2004I have been trying my hands on ORM for last 2 months. The advantages that I have come across are not too many (of course we don't write SQL.) My approach might be wrong but I feel that if you have a highly relational database, you will end up having one object for each table. If you have a deep object graph and since Deep Merging/Cloning are not recommended ways, you will need to have granular persistence services. That is not the best use of object relationships.
On the positive side, the read queries are really quick to write.
Expecting some enlightening comments!
