JBoss Hibernate offers high-performing object/relational persistence and query services. The JBoss Hibernate Technology (JB297) three-day course gives Java developers the knowledge and skills required to leverage the powerful Java Hibernate Application Stack. Through clear interactive lectures and hands-on labs, students are introduced to Hibernate essentials and internals along with its practical applications and best practices strategies. Hibernate helps students produce and maintain well-designed, robust business applications while optimizing performance and reducing software maintenance costs. This course will also demonstrate to the students how Web Platform can use a slimmed down profile of the JBoss Application Server to provide an integrated platform for next-generation, standards-based Java applications.

JBoss Hibernate adapts to your development process, no matter if you start with a design from scratch or work with an existing database. It supports any application architecture. Combined with Hibernate EntityManager and Hibernate Annotations, you can use Hibernate as a certified Java Persistence provider.

About Hibernate technology

Hibernate is an object/relational mapping (ORM) tool for Java environments. This technology takes care of the mapping from Java classes to database tables (and from Java data types to SQL data types). It also provides data query and retrieval facilities. It can significantly reduce development time otherwise spent with manual data handling in SQL and JDBC. Hibernate relieves the developer from 95% of common data persistence programming tasks. It is most useful with object-oriented domain models and business logic in the Java-based middle tier. It can help you to remove or encapsulate vendor-specific SQL code and with the common task of result set translation from a tabular representation to a graph of objects.
