• Efficient Distance Querying in MySQL

  This is an interesting article about strategies to use when traditional indexes just won't do, but for the love of the index please use MySQL's (or postgres' or sqlite's) built in spatial index for this particular class of problems. It will does this sort of thing much, much more efficiently than 99% of in house solutions. https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/spatial-types.html... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• Permazen: Language-natural persistence to KV stores

  While this may work for greenfield applications, I don't see this working well for preexisting schemas. From their getting started page: "Database fields are automatically created for any abstract getter methods", which definitely scares me away since they seem to be relying on automatic field type conversions. I prefer to manage my schemas when I can and do type and DAO conversions via mapper classes in the very... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Permazen: Language-natural persistence to KV stores

In combination with Dropwizard, it was pretty pleasant: https://www.dropwizard.io/en/stable/manual/jdbi3.html Other than that, I actually... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Is ORM still an anti-pattern?

  > I've been doing ORM on Java since Hibernate was new, and it has always sucked. Have you ever looked at something like myBatis? In particular, the XML mappers: https://mybatis.org/mybatis-3/dynamic-sql.html Looking back, I actually quite liked it - you had conditionals and ability to build queries dynamically (including snippets, doing loops etc.), while still writing mostly SQL with a bit of XML DSL around it,... - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Sketch of a Post-ORM

  I found JDBi[1] to be a really nice balance between ORM and raw SQL. It gives me the flexibility I need but takes care of a lot of the boilerplate. It's almost like a third category. 1. http://jdbi.org. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• Can someone tell me a good resource to learn and practice JDBC in java?

  You could use something like jdbi or mybatis. It's not as ugly as raw jdbc and easier to use without all of the gunk from an ORM like hibernate. Source: about 1 year ago
