Introduction

JDBL is a simple and flexible layer for moving data between Java objects and a relational database. It allows for direct, elegant use of SQL without the tedium of JDBC.

JDBL is probably for you, if you:

• Know SQL, and you don't care to learn yet another poor imitation,
• Have a DB or object model, and you are not willing to change it,
• Require support for complex mappings, because you have to solve a real-world problem,
• Need high performance, because it matters,
• Want a clean and simple interface to your data, just the way things should be.

If you feel JDBL may be the answer for your data access needs, take a few moments to see what it can offer. We've tried hard to make it simple, powerful, and performant, while building it from the ground up on a clean design. We have taken a few kicks at this can before, and we hope we've nailed it this time around.

To see how JDBL looks like in action, take a look our quick example, or browse the documentation. Last but not least, JDBL is Open Source and you are always welcome to jump in and contribute!
