Frankly, I'm getting wary of ANY abstraction layer that tries to insulate you completely from the stuff below.
You know that rule that all abstractions leak? I think it's not about fixing all leaks, it's about making them leak in a sensible manner that you won't trip over when you do "common" stuff but will still let you access the full power when you need it.
- dgabriel 19y agoHibernate allows you to do this when necessary. I'm not married to Hibernate, but I do appreciate the speed and flexibility with which you can get an enterprise app up and running. I also know that you MUST write optimized queries on occasion, or face critical performance problems. The problem arises when one stubbornly adheres to a paradigm; there no silver bullets, etc.
