Here is probably the most information you'll find about it..

Although it refers to the Java version (which is badly crippled in the Cocoa realm) the concepts carry over.

All I know what that it abstracted the program from the database. Did it
completely abstract the SQL from the program? What did it do that was so
fantastic?

yes.. no SQL.. it handles fetches, including faulting across relationships.. it makes persistence to a database very easy.
