RDB/OO Patterns

It would be good if o-o programs could interact with o-o databases, but alas, relational databases have a 99% market share. This has led to many attempts to access them from o-o languages. Design patterns for doing this have been developed, starting with "crossing chasms" and extending to Rails' ActiveRecord. Investigate the various approaches for marrying o-o programs to relational databases, comparing them in terms of ease of programming, robustness, and efficiency.
