Данная книга посвящена новейшей технологии разработки приложений баз данных в Delphi, основанной на концепции архитектуры, управляемой моделями (Model Driven Architecture — MDA).

В книге подробно, с разбором множества конкретных примеров, описываются практические шаги по созданию MDA-приложений в Delphi Читатель на практике убедится, как быстро и просто можно создавать сложные приложения, работающие практически с любой СУБД, при этом зачастую вообще не используя SQL и в ряде случаев даже не прибегая к написанию программного кода. Книга в первую очередь адресована читателям, знакомым с традиционными подходами создания приложений баз данных в Delphi, однако она может быть полезна и всем тем, кто желает познакомиться с принципиально новой технологией создания приложений в XXI веке — MDA.
