View maintenance rules for an update pipeline of an object-relational mapping (ORM) platform

摘要

A database update pipeline may be incorporated into a data access architecture for providing data services to applications, thereby bridging the gap between application data and data as persisted in databases. The update pipeline has the ability to translate changes made to object instances into data store change constructs, and carry those changes over to a data store. Such a pipeline can also advantageously perform the reverse operation, allowing applications to query using the database update pipeline, and receive materialized object instances.
