O/RMs help us bridge the gap between the database and the code base we love to write. On the night we will be looking at two ORM's, NHibernate the most widly used O/RM in the Alt.Net space and Microsoft's Enitiy Framework, the young pretender to the O/RM thrown.
ScottLogic, a leading financial software and consultancy company based in Edinburgh, have been kind enough to offer the use of their premises for an evening of O/RM knowlege sharing and dicussion. The event will take place on 2nd of July at 7pm, 17 Gayfield Square Edinburgh EH1 3NX. All are welcome!
The agenda for the evening is as follows:
7.00 - 7.30 Paul Cowan - An Introuction to NHibernate
7.30 - 8.00 Chris Canal - FluentNHibernate in 15 minutes
8.00 - 8.10 Break
8.10 - 8.40 Colin Gemmell - NHibernate vs Entity Framework - which is best?
