Comparative analysis of selected object-relational mapping systems for the .NET platform

Abstract

This article is devoted to the comparison of two object-relational mapping systems supported by .NET platform - Entity Framework Core and NHibernate. The research hypothesis “framework NHibernate is more efficient than Entity Framework Core in the context of DML operations” was put forward. In order to make an efficiency analysis of ORM frameworks, a desktop application was designed and implemented to enable testing and visualization of results. The NHibernate framework turned out to be much more efficient than Entity Framework Core in single tests and slightly faster in bulk tests. The stability of both frameworks was similar.
