Hibernate Tutorial with Examples

Hibernate ORM (Hibernate in short) is an object-relational mapping tool for the Java programming language. It provides a framework for mapping an object-oriented domain model to a relational database. Hibernate handles object-relational impedance mismatch problems by replacing direct, persistent database accesses with high-level object handling functions.

Hibernate's primary feature is mapping from Java classes to database tables, and mapping from Java data types to SQL data types. Hibernate also provides data query and retrieval facilities. It generates SQL calls and relieves the developer from the manual handling and object conversion of the result set.

Hibernate Features

  • Hibernate is an Open Source persistence technology.
  • Its primary feature is applying from Java sessions to data source platforms.
  • Hibernate provides Object/Relational mappings. It is different O/R mapping strategies as multiple-objects to single-row mapping, Polymorphic associations, bi-directional association, association filtering.
  • Hibernate provides an SQL inspired language called Hibernate Query Language (HQL) that allows SQL-like queries to be written against Hibernate's data objects.
  • Hibernate provides transparent persistence for Plain Old Java Objects (POJOs). The only strict requirement for a persistent class is a no-argument constructor, not necessarily public.
  • Hibernate can be used both in standalone Java applications and in Java EE applications using servlets, EJB session beans, and JBI service components.
  • In Hibernate jargon, an entity is a stand-alone object in Hibernate's persistent mechanism which can be manipulated independently of other objects. In contrast, a component is subordinate to an entity and can be manipulated only with respect to that entity.

Stream and types of Streams
A Stream is an abstraction that either produces or consumes information. There are two types of Streams and they are:

Byte Streams: Provide a convenient means for handling input and output of bytes. Byte Streams classes are defined by using two abstract classes, namely InputStream and OutputStream.

Character Streams: Provide a convenient means for handling input & output of characters. Character Streams classes are defined by using two abstract classes, namely Reader and Writer.
