An object that wraps a row in a database table or view, encapsulates the database access, and adds domain logic on that data.
How it works
An object is directly related to the row in a table or view. It is very similar to the [Row data gateway pattern] except that it contains the behavior of the object (as well as the data).
When to use it
Simple objects with simple business rules.
Example
