== Disadvantages ==
Potential disadvantages of using DAO include [[leaky abstraction]],{{Citation needed|reason=What kind of leak?|date=August 2014}} [[Duplicate code|code duplication]], and [[abstraction inversion]]. In particular, the abstraction of the DAO as a regular Java object can hide the high cost of each database access, and can also force developers to trigger multiple database queries to retrieve information that could otherwise be returned in a single operation with normal SQL set operations. If an application requires multiple DAOs, one might find oneself repeating essentially the same create, read, update, and delete code for each DAO. This boiler-plate code may be avoided however, by implementing a generic DAO that handles these common operations.<ref>See http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-genericdao/index.html for workarounds</ref> Time consumption is moderate.{{Citation needed|date=December 2014}}
