impedance

Wikipedia impedance (uncountable)

1. (physics) A measure of the opposition to the flow of an alternating current in a circuit; the aggregation of its resistance, inductive and capacitive reactance. Represented by the symbol Z.
2. (physics, usually with “mechanical”) a measure of opposition to motion of something subjected to a force.
3. (physics, usually with “acoustic” or “sound”) the sound pressure divided by the particle velocity and the surface area through which an acoustic wave propagates.
4. (by analogy, software engineering, usually with “mismatch”) a measure of the opposition caused by differences between two paradigms, especially between object oriented development and relational databases

     Some argue that having impedance mismatch is difficult for programming intensive applications.

     But the impedance mismatch between SQL and Java was no better than between SQL and other languages.
