I'm curious as to how people actually implement these systems in the real world.

If you're really serious about building middle-tier OO systems on top of an RDBMS, I recommend reading the manuscript for Martin Fowler's next book, Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture. (The manuscript will be on-line until the book is published later this year.)

The examples in the book are in Java or C#, but translate fairly well to Perl.

The short version is there are choice you need to make about locking models. These choices affect how you manage caches, and how you ensure that the right changes get written back to the database in the right order. Getting a middle-tier system working well requires a lot of careful bookkeeping.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
