Object Oriented programming (OOP) has been touted as the silver bullet to solve today's programming challenges. At the same time many systems will involve the manipulation of data stored in a Relational Database Management System (RDBMS). The dichotomy presented by interfacing the Object and Data models is often referred to as an 'impedance mismatch'.
