Applying Hibernate to Persistance in Java

About Training

Mastering Hibernate 4.x is a in-depth course geared for experienced Java developers who need to understand what Hibernate is in terms of today's systems and architectures, and how to apply Hibernate to persistence requirements in Java and JEE applications.

What You'll Learn

• Explain how the issues associated with object persistence in a relational model are addressed by Hibernate
• Understand the relationships between SQL, Java, JDBC, Spring, Java Persistence API, EJB 3.0, and Hibernate
• Discuss the challenges to adopting Hibernate in the enterprise
• Write applications that take advantage of the Hibernate Persistence Manager.
• Map Java classes to relational tables.
• Capture both relational and inheritance associations in metadata using either XML or the Java Annotations mechanism.
• Create and use mappings between Java classes and relational databases.
• Understand how identity and keys are handled in Hibernate.
