ORM-hibernate

A pattern that allows the use of a mapper to convert between code (ie java) to database language(ie sql)

Disadvantages of using orms

  • Close coupling of data and business layer

  • Lack of control in how ORM implements SQL

Object mapping

  • https://thorben-janssen.com/object-mapper-dto/

    • Using entities which is linked to ORM (JPA/hibernate) and mapping to a DTO which is independent

    • There are libraries that does this

    • Entities have overheader, while DTO dont

    • DTO are better for separating concerns between business logic and database impl

    • mapping libraries cause DTO to have downsides of entities
