About the Company

Doctrine

Open-source PHP ORM and DBAL libraries

Doctrine provides PHP libraries for database storage and object mapping, most notably the Object Relational Mapper (ORM) and the Database Abstraction Layer (DBAL). These open-source tools help PHP developers interact with databases by mapping PHP objects to database tables and by offering a unified API for database operations. The project is widely used across PHP frameworks such as Symfony, Laravel, and Laminas, and is maintained by a volunteer community under the MIT license. Unlike proprietary DB tools, Doctrine is funded through donations and sponsorships, and it also engages the developer community through blogs, events, and consulting. The goal is to give PHP developers stable, flexible database management capabilities and a reliable open-source ecosystem.
