Hi,
I've worked with spring and hibernate for many years, and we successful implemented many applications! I am trying to integrate spring-python on a new project that will be using python, and I would like to ask the community about reliable object relational mapping frameworks in python. We are planing to use MySQL db. Any experiences? preferences?, does spring-python offers sport for ORM frameworks as spring does? please advise.
Thank you very much in advance.
Glad to hear you are interested in Spring Python! I hope we have some useful features to rev up your development effort.Quote:

Spring Python does have a DatabaseTemplate that looks very similar to JdbcTemplate with support for MySQL. If you need to write some customized query that doesn't fit your ORM model very well, then I would definitely suggest utilizing that.
And I don't think its an either/or decision. I think both DatabaseTemplate and a Pythonic ORM can work in the same app nicely. Good luck!
