Hi,

PostgreSQL is just a different open source database, like Oracle Vs MS
SQL or MySQL vs DB2.

The Java Object one you may be thinking of is probably Hibernate.


I/We found we were far more productive using e.g. Propel than writing
'raw' SQL - most of the time all you do is CRUD, and Propel (and e.g.
Doctrine) make this very easy (normally along the lines of : $x = new
Foo(); $x->setWhatever('blah'); $x->save()); they also normally remove
any chance of SQL injection....

David.
