| Convenor: Rickard Öberg, Álvaro Hernández, Kirk

| Participants:
Andreas, Steffen, Rabea, Jesper, Alex, Tasos,Giannis Skitsas, ...
|
Summary:
Protocol
- Álvaro made a presentation and all agreed that ORMs are not practical for large scale applications.
- He proposed a ROM (Relational-Object-Mapper, generate user model from the database) instead of an ORM
- Kirk and Rickard disagreed
- Rickard proposed the paradigm "Use the right tool for the right job"
- He recommended to use a key-value store for storing blobs in a database, a separate indexing component (Lucene etc.) and a component for reporting
- Transactions are not needed, because the object is the aggregate
- a event queue (event sourcing) is implemented to synchronize the components and recover in case of an error
|
Recommendations:
Use the Right Tool for the Right Job
- Rickard proposes an alternative approach for storing, managing and creating reports based on the data managed by services.
- The key to this approach is to use the right tool for the job.
