JPA with Spring Boot

JPA is one of Java's persistence frameworks in order to access relational data in an effective way. It offers a complete object-relational mapping solution to this end. Spring Boot will help you making it even more efficient, by adding JPA repositories, and by simplifying the configuration.

The purpose of this course is to show the participant how a Java application can be mapped to a relational database schema with the use of Spring Boot and JPA.

Schedule

No public sessions are currently scheduled. We will be pleased to set up an on-site course or to schedule an extra public session (in case of a sufficient number of candidates). Interested? Please let us know.

Intended for

Architects, designers and programmers who are interested in object-relational mapping, using Spring and JPA.

Reviews

trainer was well prepared. course and content was very useful. issue was with the vm being slow which slowed down the pace and killed the mojo.
