Re: suggested persistence approach for new app

Hi Charles,

if you’re familiar with RDMS, then i’d suggest using Glorp and a relational database. Don’t use EXDI directly, it’s cumbersome and there’re a lot of mistakes to make (like SQL injection) that frameworks like Glorp prevent you from doing. Glorp has its learning curve, if you’re not familiar with it, but it's rock solid.

If you’re already familiar with Gemstone, just use Gemstone. It also has it’s learning curve but it’s also rock solid.

Kind Regards
Karsten

Assuming that Gemstone is already a candidate, although that case I would be doing it thru a web interface which needed further development for my purposes, what would people here do for persistence ?

Plain old EXDI to an RDMS ?

Glorp ?

or the MongoDriver which I see has at least been updated to 4.4.8 ?

from I"m using it from VW perspective what would be better i.e. for a brand new app ?

Any other suggestions?

thanks
