Beginning Hibernate

Beginning Hibernate

<p><em>Beginning Hibernate, Third Edition</em> is ideal if you’re experienced in Java with databases (the traditional, or "connected," approach), but new to open-source, lightweight Hibernate, a leading object-relational mapping and database-oriented application development framework.</p><p>This book packs in information about the release of the Hibernate 4.x persistence layer and provides a clear introduction to the current standard for object-relational persistence in Java. And since the book keeps its focus on Hibernate without wasting time on nonessential third-party tools, you’ll be able to immediately start building transaction-based engines and applications.</p><p>Experienced authors Joseph Ottinger with Dave Minter and Jeff Linwood provide more in-depth examples than any other book for Hibernate beginners. The authors also present material in a lively, example-based manner—not a dry, theoretical, hard-to-read fashion. </p><h3>What you’ll learn</h3><ul><li>How to build enterprise Java-based transaction-type applications that access complex data with Hibernate</li><li>How to work with Hibernate 4 </li><li>Where to integrate into the persistence life cycle</li><li>How to map using annotations, Hibernate XML files, and more </li><li>How to search and query with the new version of Hibernate </li><li>How to integrate with MongoDB using NoSQL</li></ul><h3>Who this book is for</h3> <p> This book is for Java developers who want to learn about Hibernate. </p> <h3>Table of Contents</h3><ol start="1"><li>An Introduction to Hibernate 4 </li><li>Integrating and Configuring Hibernate </li><li>Building a Simple Application </li><li>The Persistence Life Cycle </li><li>An Overview of Mapping </li><li>Mapping with Annotations </li><li>JPA Integration and Lifecycle Events</li><li>Using the Session </li><li>Searches and Queries </li><li>Advanced Queries Using Criteria </li><li>Filtering the Results of Searches </li><li>NoSQL</li><li>More Advanced Features</li></ol><p></p>
