In this case was multicore computation without GIL if i remember correctly.

SQLAlchemy 1.4 5 years ago

But can it do everything sqlalchemy can do? It is not a data mapper ORM it seems.

Weird, we do it with Python all the time. Just don't use globals/threadlocals everywhere and you will be good.

Imagine be you build a "search users" page with many filters, you will end up inventing query builder at one point. The more dynamic data you need, you will end up reinventing those systems. The worst that can happen is when you start concatenating sql queries together.ORM/query builders save you that headache.

Same here, I'd like to dive into golang. But there is nothing as good as SQLAlchemy. Maybe with generics we will start seeing some projects that can fill the gap.

We are running sqlalchemy in a giant environment - hundreds of millions of users. SQLAlchemy has been a blessing for us. Blame users that use flask-alchemy or whatever else is cool. This is exactly the same type of comment that blames ORM-s for ineffective SQL being used because people don't know how to write the queries in the first place.

You do have to maintain features, fix security issues, refactor surfaces get smaller, even unused - bitrotting code generates at least some work.
