Data (with its DBMS) often lives longer than the application access it. And,
also the data are often accessed in different way, maybe concurrently, or
even in clustering environment. I can foresee the hybrid approach associates
with complexity, a lot technical issues and is a costly resource burden,
with those requirements. Having so many request features in our list
already, passing thru queries are probably the only safe bet in this moment.

It probably takes years before we reach that state. In my opinion, having
such resource into other area will be more beneficial for most people.

Castor has an in-memory lock and cache engine to make sure least amount of
access to the database. We do have planned to optimize Castor by using less
sql join, pre-fetching and utilizes batch statement facility to speed things
up. However, passing thru queries will be there for a long while.
