FireStorm/DAO is a Code Generation Tool for Data Persistence
Code generation tool to Generate Java source code for accessing relational databases
FireStorm/DAO Code Generation Tool makes Java software developers more productive by automatically generating Java source code for accessing relational databases.
Code Generation Tool: Reduced complexity
FireStorm/DAO's generated Java provides a one-to-one mapping between Java objects and database tables, which is simpler than using a complex mapping tier.
Code Generation Tool: Portable code
The FireStorm/DAO Code Generation Tool generated Java is fully portable between stand-alone Java and Enterprise Java. The code is also portable between Application Servers(ensuring no lock-in). The generated Java conforms to the widely accepted Data Access Object design pattern. FireStorm/DAO Code Generation Tool does not require proprietary runtime libraries.
Service-Oriented
The Java generated by FireStorm/DAO Code Generation Tool is designed for use in service-oriented architectures. The Data Access Object (DAO) classes are stateless services that can easily be exposed as transactional Session Beans and are also suitable for use as part of a Web Services architecture.
Performance
FireStorm/DAO Code Generation Tool is not limited to simple single-table operations but can also leverage the power of the relational database by generating Custom DAO classes that make use of complex SQL statements including table joins. FireStorm/DAO Code Generation Tool also provides support for exposing stored procedures as Data Access Objects.
Productivity Gains
Generating Java by definition is always going to be much faster than hand coding. For reference purposes, when using FireStorm/DAO Code Generation Tool with a reasonable large (over 20 tables) database, there is approximately a twenty-fold productivity increase.
Quality
Generated Java will always have fewer errors than hand written code, due to the elimination of typos, human error, and so on. FireStorm/DAO provides a consistent approach across multiple projects, multiple development teams, and against multiple types of database product. Generating Java ensures that software developers are more likely to be focussed on the business requirements than the more mundane task of coding.
