TOPIC OVERVIEW

NestJS/Database and ORM

Connect NestJS to databases while keeping data access organized and separate from your business logic.

18 QuestionsAdvancedHigh Priority ~13 min read

Most NestJS applications need to store and retrieve data from a database. NestJS can work with different database libraries and ORMs, allowing your application to define entities or schemas, perform queries, and manage relationships.

A clean data-access layer keeps database-specific logic away from controllers and other business logic. You also need to understand transactions, relationships, migrations, connection management, and query performance when building production applications.
