Mike Keith - Böcker

Sun is releasing its new Java Persistence API (JPA) 2.x as part of its new Java EE 6 Platform release in Summer of 2009. This book is a detailed learning and use reference, written by EJB co-spec lead and JPA contributor Mike Keith and his colleague.

Learn to use the Jakarta Persistence API and other related APIs as found in the Jakarta EE 10 platform from the perspective of one of the specification creators. A one-of-a-kind resource, this in-depth book provides both theoretical and practical coverage of Jakarta Persistence usage for experienced Java developers.Authors  Lukas Jungmann, Mike Keith, Merrick Schincariol, Massimo Nardone take a hands-on approach, based on their wealth of experience and expertise, by giving examples to illustrate each concept of the API and showing how it is used in practice. The examples use a common model from an overarching sample application, giving you a context from which to start and helping you to understand the examples within an already familiar domain. After completing this in-depth book, you will have a full understanding of persistence and be able to successfully code applications using its annotations and APIs. The book also serves as an excellent reference guide.What You Will LearnUse Jakarta Persistence in the context of enterprise applicationsWork with object relational mappings (ORMs), collection mappings and moreBuild complex enterprise Java applications that persist data long after the process terminatesConnect to and persist data with a variety of databases, file formats, and moreUse queries, including the Jakarta Persistence Query Language (Jakarta Persistence QL)Carry out advanced ORM, queries and XML mappingsPackage, deploy and test your Jakarta persistence-enabled enterprise applicationsWho This Book Is ForExperienced Java programmers and developers with at least some prior experience with Jakarta EE or Java EE platform APIs.
