an in-depth look at the architecture of an object/relational mapper
Object/relational mapping (ORM) tools can deliver a number of benefits to object-oriented, data-centric applications. These benefits are usually artifacts of the implementation of the tool used for the mapping, and not of the ORM paradigm itself. We will examine some of the significant features that the Kodo[1] ORM implementation delivers, by looking at the architecture of Kodo to see the source of these features.
