They both have their own high and low points. SQL is a language missing many components many are used to, and the ways of performing operations can be difficult. This makes it less accessible to new programmers, and the younger programmers. ORM's provide an easier to use interface to interact with databases, therefore make it simpler for someone to get started with databases from particular languages. A downfall is speed, which can always be improved upon. SQL's syntax will likely never be changed. Point in case: It all matters WHO wants to program and their specific needs. --20cf3054a603006aa9049506d124--
