I have no idea what this means either. Sounds like a bunch of buzzwords about nothing.

It means that Prisma will provide a data access layer (we call it "application data platform" [1]) similar to the custom data access layers built by big companies [2] (e.g. TAO by Facebook or Strato by Twitter) that enables application developers to better access their databases.

We've explained that in the blog post here in the "Open-source, and beyond"-section [3].

Does that help? :)

I think we all appreciate the links but unless I'm missing something, no, it doesn't help -- what's the plan to make money? That blog post doesn't mention anything along those lines at all.
