DataMapper

DataMapper is a design pattern used in software development to connect an application's data structures with a database. It acts as a translator, ensuring that data stored in the database is correctly represented within the application's code, and vice versa. By separating the data access logic from business logic, DataMapper makes code more organized, flexible, and easier to maintain. It allows developers to work with objects that represent data without needing to worry about how the data is stored or retrieved, streamlining the process of managing complex data interactions.
