Should I choose SQLAlchemy or Storm ORM?

Question

Python

Hello. We are planning to write an online store in Python + Tornado. It is planned to process from 10,000 to 500,000 hosts per day. Now we select ORM for this task. We will use PostgreSQL as the database. Who has experience in implementing such systems on the above ORM, share your opinion.

Answer 1

Storm is dead. He was thrown out on public display and beaten. Unless the found bugs were fixed.
Take alchemy. There will be less headaches.
PS But if you rely on high loads, it's better to do without orms by writing your own models based on an asynchronous driver.

Answer 2

Although the question is old, but I will answer it anyway, maybe others will be interested.
In this case, if the question itself has arisen, then it is better, of course, to take SQLAlchemy. It is unlikely that you will delve into the sources of Storm ORM - and this is its main advantage - the simplicity of the sources. The difference between SQLAlchemy and Storm ORM is about the same as between Dojo and jQuery, Emacs and Vim. For a more detailed answer, see this Storm ORM article .
