< Doctrine DBAL and ORM

Doctrine ORM Basics

Doctrine

Show in app

Description

Knowledge about the concept of an Object Relational Mapper.

Goals

I know

  • what an ORM is
  • what DQL is and where it is needed
  • the meaning of "code-first" and "database-first" in the context of ORM

I can

  • describe an application use case where resorting to the DBAL is preferable to using ORM
