ORM vs GraphQL

Talk video

Talk presentation

Now many developers (not all) have a tendency to use a number of technologies, not understanding how they work and which problems they solve and which ones they create. The talk will be devoted to a review of libraries in Python, which help us work with databases, namely, effectively receive data.

I will try to tell and answer the following questions:

• why is it sometimes worth writing RAW SQL;
• when it is worth paying attention to ORM, in particular, their advantages and differences;
• where and how ORM will be slower, and where there will be no difference;
• how and what ORMs can work in asynchronous mode;
• what does GraphQL have to do with it and how can it help.
