Hi, Grant. Given it has been a while since your last post on this topic, and with the introduction of new releases of E/F, any new opinion(s)?Thanks...Chris
Nope. Sorry. I left that company. I haven't heard anything in six months, but the last I did hear, they still hadn't released it to production. They were facing major performance bottlenecks all over the place. They had to build a second, normalized database, because they were unable to do even the simplest reports from the object-only database. It doesn't sound good.
I'm still not anti-ORM, but, it does seem that it's extremely easy to use an ORM tool in a horribly inappropriate fashion and that the ramifications from that are seriously far-reaching.
