Course Overview

Top

Hibernate is a popular Object/Relational Mapping framework that enables developers to write applications whose data persists in a database beyond the lifetime of the application that uses the data.

The Introduction to Hibernate course focuses on the practical aspects of using Hibernate as part of the technology stack. Attendees will learn how to develop persistent classes following natural Object-oriented idioms including inheritance,polymorphism,association,composition,and the Java collections framework.

The course uses Hibernate 5.2,and is based around a series of hands-on practical exercises and examples,where attendees will learn how to use Hibernate to produce high-performance,scalable and reliable software that manages critical data.

Exercises and examples are used throughout the course to give practical hands-on experience with the techniques covered.

Virtual Learning

This interactive training can be taken from any location, your office or home and is delivered by a trainer. This training does not have any delegates in the class with the instructor, since all delegates are virtually connected. Virtual delegates do not travel to this course, Global Knowledge will send you all the information needed before the start of the course and you can test the logins.
