Hibernate with Spring (HS)

Developers interested in using Hibernate with Spring

To benefit fully from this Hibernate training, course delegates should be able to:

• Create basic Java web applications
• Basic understanding of JDBC and relational database concepts

In this training you will learn how to create effective data-driven Spring applications with Hibernate. With the focus on the data tier, you will learn to configure Hibernate in the context of a Spring application, how to create efficient object/relational mappings with Hibernate and how to leverage the Spring Framework to facilitate Hibernate session, transaction and exception management. The training shows the use of both XML and annotation based configuration of both Spring and Hibernate.

Through our trainings, you benefit from the wide experience and architectural expertise of our team. We bring that experience to you in a highly interactive, intensely hands-on setting. This training focuses on explaining features of using Hibernate with Spring and goes on to discuss fundamental architectural issues. It's important to know how to use certain parts of a framework, but it's even more important to be able to decide when to use them.
