## What it is
JugglingDB is a cross-database ORM for Node.js that provides a common model interface over MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite3, MongoDB, Redis, ArangoDB, and an in-memory adapter. It also supports client-side usage via WebService and Memory adapters, letting rich client apps talk to servers over a JSON API.

## Use cases
- use one ORM API across mysql, postgres, mongodb, and redis
- define models with validations and hooks in nodejs
- swap database backends without rewriting data-access code
- use an in-memory adapter for testing
- build client-side apps that talk to a server via a JSON API

## When to choose
- you need a single common ORM interface across multiple database engines
- you want lightweight model definitions with validations and lifecycle hooks
- you want an in-memory adapter for tests

## When to avoid
- you need a modern, actively maintained ORM with current Node.js support
- you need advanced features like migrations or relations beyond the basics
- you are starting a new project - consider LoopBack/Sequelize/Prisma instead
