  • Streaming data from RDBMS with jooq
    3 projects | dev.to | 23 Feb 2025
    Relational databases provide components such as cursors, which can be used to process large datasets while fetching only a limited number of rows at a time. With the help of jooq framework,we can take it a step further—leveraging cursors under the hood while seamlessly integrating with Java's Stream API. Let’s see it in action!
  • Systems ideas that sound good but almost never work

    (1) DSLs work great sometimes. See https://www.jooq.org/

    (2) Elastic Load Balancer is a control loop responsive to workloads, that kind of thing is a commodity

    (3) Under-provisioning is rampant in most industries; see https://erikbern.com/2018/03/27/waiting-time-load-factor-and... and https://www.amazon.com/Goal-Process-Ongoing-Improvement/dp/0...

    (4) Anomaly detection is not inherently a problem of distributed systems like the others, but someone facing the problems they've been burned with might think they need it. Intellectually it's tough. The first algorithm I saw that felt halfway smart was https://scikit-learn.org/1.5/modules/outlier_detection.html#... which is sometimes a miracle and I had good luck using it on text with the CNN-based embeddings we had in 2018 but none at all w/ SBERT.

    jOOQ would be one such example, https://www.jooq.org/

    Not that I use this, I am a myBatis person in what concerns database access in Java, and Dapper in .NET for that matter, not a big ORM fan.

    > 2. ORMs do not hide SQL nastiness.

    This is certainly true!

    I mean: ORMs are now well known to "make the easy queries slightly more easy, while making intermediate queries really hard and complex queries impossible".

    I think the are of ORMs is over. It simply did not deliver.

    If a book on SQL is --say-- 100 pages, a book on Hibernate is 400 pages. So much to learn just to make the easy queries slightly easier to type? Just not worth it.

    I prefer jooq any day over ORMs. And dont get me started over what tools like Hasuna have to offer.

    There are also some languages (forgot the names) that are SQL-done-right. Select in the back, more type safe, more logic, more in the same steps as the query gets executed. These need to be adopted by PG and MySQL and we're good to go. (IMHO)

What are some alternatives?

When comparing SQLDelight and jOOQ you can also consider the following projects:

Exposed - Kotlin SQL Framework

Querydsl - Unified Queries for Java

Ktorm - A lightweight ORM framework for Kotlin with strong-typed SQL DSL and sequence APIs.

JDBI - The Jdbi library provides convenient, idiomatic access to relational databases in Java and other JVM technologies such as Kotlin, Clojure or Scala.

ObjectBox Java (Kotlin, Android) - Database for Android and JVM - first and fast, lightweight on-device vector database

sql2o - sql2o is a small library, which makes it easy to convert the result of your sql-statements into objects. No resultset hacking required. Kind of like an orm, but without the sql-generation capabilities. Supports named parameters.
