<p>ORM is certainly a very popular concept these days, but I haven&#8217;t really come across any PHP implementations that I found worth-while.  Sure, big frameworks like CakePHP may have ORM functionality, but I&#8217;m not a fan of huge frameworks.  I&#8217;ve also dabbled in my own implementations, but never got too far, as I&#8217;m not a fan of re-inventing the wheel.  At any rate, I stumbled across Doctrine by accident (good ol&#8217; RSS readers), and am impressed,  mostly because it&#8217;s something that can be integrated into existing projects / frameworks.<br />
