The Java BluePrints projects presents the programming model, guidelines and examples for designing enterprise quality applications and web services using Java technologies. Some of the areas covered are Ajax-enabled Web 2.0 applications, Persistence, JavaServer Faces, SOA with BPEL, and WS-Security. This talk will focus on the Java Persistence API.
Brian Leonard works as a senior software engineer with Sun Microsystems. He's been working with application servers before there was a J2EE standard, helping develop applications as well as the servers that run them. Until most recently, Brian's been focused on helping large enterprises implement and deploy highly-available architectures. In his current role, Brian is an evangelist for the Sun's Java development tools.
Java Persistence 2.0— One of the key outcomes of Java EE 5 / EJB 3.0 was the introduction of the Java Persistence API. JPA is a new standard API for Java persistence and object/relational mapping that supports use in both Java EE and Java SE environments.
Advanced Topics in JPA— In this talk we will introduce a few of the common features and use them as a platform on which we can discuss some of the higher order JPA topics. As part of this discussion we will show how to use multiple persistence units, define and tune identifier generators, create and invoke native queries, and use XML mapping files for overriding annotation metadata. We will also show how JPA can be used in Java SE and Spring environments.
Writing JPA applications— In this session Patrick explores the new Java Persistence API, and examine some common practices for how to write Spring applications that use JPA. Patrick will focus more on API usage than on mapping configuration, and will look at the bootstrapping and runtime behavior of JPA applications. You will learn about JPA's optimistic locking semantics, including the benefits of optimistic read locks. Patrick looks at when it's appropriate to use the different facilities of the Java Persistence Query Language (JPQL), and also discusses common extensions to the spec, including performance caching, pessimistic locking, and fetch strategies.
Enterprise Development with JPA— Standardization of persistence inside of the Java EE platform, as well as in the SE environment, will finally provide enterprise applications with the ability to write to one API and be able to run on the vendor of their choice. This talk covers best practices and common usage patterns of the Java Persistence API in conjunction with a Java EE application server.
Using the Java Persistence API— Standardization of persistence inside of the Java EE platform, as well as in the SE environment, will finally provide enterprise applications with the ability to write to one API and be able to run on the vendor of their choice.
