Well since ORM has all these following meanings ORM is an acronym for: Object role modeling Object-relational mapping Operational Risk Management a U.S. Navy concept for safety in operations planning Online research methods Orosomucoid Outsourcing Relationship Management Online Reputation Management ORM is also: the IATA airport code for Sywell Aerodrome in Northamptonshire, England I am not sure exactly what you want. I mean you mentioned a lot of database mapping libraries so I am hoping that is what you are looking for. We use sqlite3 for our db only because it has some easy ways to just request whole tables into dictionaries in python. I am not sure if you would consider doing sql requests and having it auto port it into a dictionary an ORM but to each their own.
