What are peoples thoughts over having a http restful interface to the database instead of a traditional ORM? I'm considering this approach in a future project, returning data as json/serialized php

It's also worth looking at the DBSlayer rest-ish interface to MySQL. It was written by and is being used by NYTimes engineers: http://code.nytimes.com/projects/dbslayer http://code.nytimes.com/projects/dbslayer

This is pretty cool. It's actually a lot closer to being really RESTful than I thought. This is definitely not just putting and getting serialized SQL.
