Hibernate Training

Hibernate 3.x is an open-source object-relational mapping tool (ORM) that lets you develop persistent classes and POJO objects in a relational database using following common Java idiom such as - association, inheritance, polymorphism, composition and the Java collections framework.

We have designed this training course especially to those beginners who want to get their POJO’s based-application interacted with the relational database using simple ORM tool as Hibernate.

Our Hibernate Training course uses the release version of Hibernate 3.x, which is directly used with the new EJB 3.0 version defined in Java EE 5.0 specification. 

Hibernate Training Objectives
In this course you will learn how to persist your class POJO's with Hibernate's Object-Relational mapping technology. After completing this course, you will be confident for implementing Object-Relational persistence in your application, which make your applications successful.

Hibernate Training Course Prerequisites
Before learning this course, we are assuming that the candidate has good background in the following technologies:

• Intermediate knowledge of Java programming.
• Creating basic web applications using Servlet & JSP.
• Some familiarity with SQL, relational databases, and the Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) interfaces will be helpful.
