ORM - CI/CD Glossary Definition

An ORM maps database tables to objects in code, letting developers query and persist data without writing raw SQL.

An ORM (object-relational mapper) is a library that maps database tables to objects in code, so developers query and persist data using their language rather than raw SQL.

Most ORMs ship a migration generator, so schema changes in a pipeline are produced from model definitions and applied by the same tool.
