The problem of integrating databases and programming languages has been open for nearly 45 years. During this time much progress has been made, in exploring specialized database programming languages, orthogonal persistence, object-oriented databases, transaction models, data access libraries, embedded queries, and object-relational mapping. While new solutions are proposed every year, none has yet proven fully satisfactory. One explanation for this situation is that the problem itself is not sufficiently well defined, so that partial solutions continue to be proposed and evaluated based upon incomplete metrics, making directed progress difficult. This paper is an attempt to clarify the problem, rather than propose a new solution. This paper review issues that arise on the boundary between programming languages and databases, including typing, optimization, and reuse.
