HIBERNATE TECHNOLOGY FOR AN EFFICIENT BUSINESS APPLICATIONEXTENSION

[摘要] This paper discusses hibernate technology as a novel and efficient means to access huge databases and also focuses on how to implement persistent features in object-oriented system through it . It discusses currently available hibernate mapping framework in detail. Hibernate provides support for collections, object relations, as well as complex and composite types. In addition to persisting objects, hibernate also provides a rich query language to retrieve objects from the database, along with an efficient caching layer and Java Management Extensions (JMX) support. Hibernate is a powerful, high-performance, feature-rich and very popular ORM solution for Java. Hibernate facilitates development of persistent objects based on the common Java object model to mirror the underlying database structure. This approach progresses the business performance to some extent, advances development efficiency exceedingly and obtains preferable economical efficiency and practicability. In addition to, it compares and analyzes the database access efficiency resulted from two mechanisms based on Hibernate and JDBC. This paper offers insight into hibernate technology its implementation and usage.
