Entity Framework vs NHibernate

A lot of stuff has been written about Entity Framework versus NHibernate. Although with the release of Entity Framework 4, the gap became a lot smaller, NHibernate 3 brings the competition to the next level (at least that is what I think).

Dino Esposito did a blog series where he tries to compare Entity Framework(4) and NHibernate(2.1)  on multiple areas. I don’t agree with his conclusions on all levels, but it’s still an interesting read:

  • Part3 Fetch plans-a recognized and common way for developers to instruct the O/RM about the structure of the SQL you desire.

A single pod produces about 11 Kg CO2eq per year( here the calculation). Reason enough to give it a try! Installing kube-green in your cluster The easiest way to install the operator in your cluster is through kubectl. We first need to install a cert-manager: kubectl apply -f https://github.com/cert-manager/cert-manager/releases/download/v1.14.5/cert-manager.yaml Remark: Wait a minute before you continue as it can take some time before the cert-manager is up & running inside your cluster. Now we can install the kube-green operator: kubectl apply -f https://github.com/kube-green/kube-green/releases/latest/download/kube-green.yaml Now in the namespace where we want t...
