Beginning Hibernate (eBook)

Beginning Hibernate, Third Edition 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.

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.

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.

Dave Minter has adored computers since he was small enough to play in the boxes they came in. He built his first PC from discarded, faulty, and obsolete components, and considers that to be the foundation of his career as an integration consultant. Dave is based in London, where he helps large and small companies build systems that 'just work.' He co-authored Building Portals with the Java Portlet API and Pro Hibernate 3.
