The antidote to driving the best cars to nowhere

Prevayler

Prevayler is an interesting twist on the whole database idea. Apart from the dramatic increase in speed (9000 times over Oracle claimed) it seems to require a significant amount of programmer discipline to get around the fact that prevalent systems don’t have transactions. It also has some interesting implications for architecture.I’m playing around with Prevayler and Webwork at the moment and it’s really neat that webwork actions can also be Prevayler commands. It certainly leads to minimal persistence code.
