Hi WOrriors,

I still question why we are fighting so hard for Object-relational mapping. If we are contemplating doing work, shouldn't we consider going straight for object databases? Take out the transcription layer. Let's get more productive. Only use OR-mapping for old systems that we must interface with but new work should consider the advantages of being pure objects, all the time.

Everyone has success stories. You can write a great app in PHP if you really want to (though none of us would choose to). What really counts is how people achieve their success and if we'd enjoy doing it in a similar fashion. For us that means we want creative options and better productivity. That's why we've historically chosen WO.

Here's one success story that really peaks my interest - it drives home my love/hate relationship with any ORM even one as nice as EOF:

It talks about GLASS as if we all know what that is. It's Gemstone's turnkey solution to Internet app development... Like WO used to have. You can get a brief definition here:

Gemstone has been used a long time with lots of data. Here's one success story with a shipping company and over 1.5 billion data objects:

Here's a more general listing of success stories:
