Loading ...NHibernate Interest Increasing?
Posted by Davy Brion on November 22nd, 2008
With the recent announcements regarding LINQ To SQL, and the Entity Framework team continuing to display how they really don’t ‘get’ it , i’ve noticed an increase in popularity of my NHibernate related posts lately. I’ve also noticed an increase in traffic from people who are searching online with NHibernate related keywords. Obviously, it could just be a coincidence. But it would be pretty cool if people are now giving NHibernate more proper consideration when investigating what data access technologies to build your applications with.
How about you? Has the LINQ To SQL announcement or the ‘progress’ of the Entity Framework had any impact on which technology you would consider for your applications?

I gave a year to LINQ to SQL and from that I did learn some basic about ORM. With Microsoft’s recent decision to kinda dump LINQ to SQL, I have started to focus on NHibernate and Summer of NHibernate screencast by Steve Bohlen is good way to start.

Jump over to Ayende’s blog, he’s got a couple of graphs showing exactly what you are suspecting. =)
