Mark Rendle Has Some Simple.Data
Carl and Richard talk to Mark Rendle about Simple.Data. As Mark describes it, Simple.Data is not an ORM because there's no objects and no relational mapping. Simple.Data is a dynamic data utility to make your data persistence layer as light weight as possible. Mark also talks about Nancy, a light-weight web development framework. The conversation also moves to OWIN, the Open Web Server Interface. The show wraps up with Mark's insights on simpler, more open software.
