Java Persistence with Spring Data and Hibernate teaches you the ins-and-outs of Java persistence with hands-on examples using Spring Data, JPA, and Hibernate. The book carefully analyzes the capabilities of the major Java persistence tools, and guides you through the most common use cases. By comparing and contrasting the alternatives, you’ll find it easy to choose the right tool choice for your applications. You’ll learn how to make and utilize mapping strategies, about the different approach to transactions for both Hibernate and Spring Data, and even how to efficiently test Java persistence applications.

About the technology

Effectively managing application data is essential for any serious application. Spring Data and Hibernate bridge the gap between object-oriented code and relational data stores, radically simplifying Java persistence. By implementing the Java Persistence API (JPA) standard, these powerful tools help you avoid common bugs related to state and application data storage.
