 **ADOdb Active Record** is an [[wp>Object-relational_mapping|Object Relation Mapping]] (ORM) implementation using PHP. In an ORM system, the tables and rows of the database are abstracted into native PHP objects. This allows the programmer to focus more on manipulating the data and less on writing SQL queries. **ADOdb Active Record** is an [[wp>Object-relational_mapping|Object Relation Mapping]] (ORM) implementation using PHP.

 ''ADODb Active Record'' maps a database table to a PHP class, and each instance of that class represents a table row. Relations between tables can also be defined, allowing the ADODb Active Record objects to be nested. ''ADODb Active Record'' maps a database table to a PHP class, and each instance of that class represents a table row.
