Overview

Hibernate is a popular Object/Relational Mapping framework that enables developers to write applications whose data persists in a database beyond the lifetime of the application that uses the data.

The Introduction to Hibernate course focuses on the practical aspects of using Hibernate as part of the technology stack. Attendees will learn how to develop persistent classes following natural Object-oriented idioms including inheritance, polymorphism, association, composition, and the Java collections framework.

The course uses Hibernate 5.2, and is based around a series of hands-on practical exercises and examples, where attendees will learn how to use Hibernate to produce high-performance, scalable and reliable software that manages critical data.

Exercises and examples are used throughout the course to give practical hands-on experience with the techniques covered.

Objectives

This course aims to provide the delegate with the knowledge to be able to:

  • Configure JPA and Hibernate
  • Map Java objects to relational tables
  • Map object associations to relationships
  • Manage transactions
  • Create and retrieve persistent objects
  • Manipulate persistent objects

Target Audience

The Introduction to Hibernate course is aimed at architects, programmers, engineers, managers and those involved in the development of complex enterprise-level Java applications.

This course is aimed specifically at those using Java as the core development language.
