Active Records VS Sql What Do You Think ?? by mambenanje(m): 6:57pm On Jun 24, 2008 |
Active records is a new way of querying a relational database without hand coding or thinking about the sql yourself. now let me give an example if I want to get everything in a table of users I will code it like this
thats realy boring and I can't remember the last time I wrote codes like that. imagine coding a solution as big as twitter and u have to write such codes. it will take you 4 months. now lets do it with active records
with active records we have more readable codes and easy to work on by many other developers. nowadays I work with projects with guys in India and Europe with active records our codes are easy to comprehend. active records information can be read from wikipedia following this link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_record |

SQL is much better for data management. You can express almost any query in one line with SQL. |

Seun me and you again on this topic well I wonder why sql will be better for data management. Its just like saying procedural programming is better that Object oriented programming. Active Records just wraps the database into an object, something computer programmers understand better. and now we might keep the database admin at the level of designing and maintaining the database tables and relations while developers handle everything in codes and they dont need to ask any sql from the database admin. with traditional sql you always need the DBA in big projects to give you the sql for everything or create you stored procedures to call. Infact Seun on this one I declare myself right |
