upper/db is a productive data access layer (DAL) for Go that provides a database-agnostic, ORM-like API for working with SQL and NoSQL databases such as PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, CockroachDB, MSSQL, and MongoDB. It supports CRUD operations, struct-to-query-result mapping, pagination, transactions, and a SQL builder for raw queries.

Use cases

• query databases in Go without writing raw SQL
• use one consistent API across PostgreSQL, MySQL, and MongoDB
• map Go structs to database query results
• implement pagination for database result sets
• run database transactions from Go code
• mix ORM-style operations with raw SQL queries

When to choose

• you want ORM-like productivity in Go while retaining the option to write raw SQL
• your application needs to support multiple database backends with a single API
• you need built-in pagination, transactions, and struct mapping

When to avoid

• you need a full-featured ORM with advanced migrations and associations
• you prefer lightweight direct database drivers like database/sql
• you use a database engine not on the supported list
