Analysis of ORM framework approaches for Node.js

This work analyzes the performance of three ORM frameworks for Node.js Sequelize, Prisma, and TypeORM under different database interaction modes: single cached and uncached queries, as well as parallel load. Testing was conducted across various usage scenarios using a simple online store system backed by a PostgreSQL database. Collected data provides insights into how each ORM behaves under different conditions and may be helpful when selecting a tool for working with databases. The results show that Prisma provides the best performance under parallel load, while Sequelize performs efficiently in single-query scenarios with low concurrency. TypeORM demonstrated stable behavior across all modes and supports more advanced features such as hierarchical data processing.

Abstract

This work analyzes the performance of three ORM frameworks for Node.js Sequelize, Prisma, and TypeORM under different database interaction modes: single cached and uncached queries, as well as parallel load. Testing was conducted across various usage scenarios using a simple online store system backed by a PostgreSQL database. Collected data provides insights into how each ORM behaves under different conditions and may be helpful when selecting a tool for working with databases. The results show that Prisma provides the best performance under parallel load, while Sequelize performs efficiently in single-query scenarios with low concurrency. TypeORM demonstrated stable behavior across all modes and supports more advanced features such as hierarchical data processing.
