Spring 4 And Hibernate 4 Agile Java Design And Development

Design and develop Java-based, data-driven applications using Spring and Hibernate technology Spring 4 and Hibernate 4: Agile Java Design and Development covers real-world applications for developing a multi-tiered, object-oriented Java system using Spring 4 and Hibernate 4. An accessible reference for working with almost any data modeling scenario, the book considers examples of all data modeling relationships with their many variations, then covers designing, developing, and unit testing each scenario with Spring and Hibernate. With each lesson, this practical guide develops the user interface along with the presentation tier, then develops the business service tier, the data access tier, and the resource tier with the test-driven development agile approach. Covers v4 of Spring and Hibernate which have backward compatibility with earlier versions The valuable data modeling techniques presented are not available in the specification for Spring or Hibernate Ready-to-use code from the book is available for download

Description: In this book we are developing a multi-tiered object-oriented Java web system using Spring and Hibernate. Instead of real life business requirements, we consider examples of all the relationships of data modeling. With each lesson, we develop the user interface along with the presentation tier in a nimble manner. We also develop the business service tier, the data access tier and the resource (entity) tier with the test driven development agile approach. The chapters contain detailed explanations and code fragments sufficient to get you familiarized with the development techniques. The Appendix section has the link to the entire source code should you require reference to it. I appeal to the reader to go hands on and develop the entire code shown in the book which may aid in improving core concepts of relational database driven web application development. What you will learn: REST Architecture with support for mobile applications All the relationships of data modeling Development of user interface with JSP, JQuery, AJAX and JSON Development of mock in-memory database Design, develop and unit test the presentation tier Design, develop and unit test the business tier Design, develop and unit test the data access tier Design, develop and unit test the resource (entity) tier Popular patterns and best practices in designing a complete Spring and Hibernate based relational database driven Java web application Table of Contents: PART I: An Introduction to Data-Driven Development Chapter 1.

Difficult to find another Java book covering REST architecture which is popular in today's world where applications needs to support mobile view along with online view.

Agile JavaTM Development With Spring, Hibernate and Eclipse is a book about robust technologies and effective methods which help bring simplicity back into the world of enterprise Java development. The three key technologies covered in this book, the Spring Framework, Hibernate and Eclipse, help reduce the complexity of enterprise Java development significantly. Furthermore, these technologies enable plain old Java objects (POJOs) to be deployed in light-weight containers versus heavy-handed remote objects that require heavy EJB containers. This book also extensively covers technologies such as Ant, JUnit, JSP tag libraries and touches upon other areas such as such logging, GUI based debugging, monitoring using JMX, job scheduling, emailing, and more. Also, Extreme Programming (XP), Agile Model Driven Development (AMDD) and refactoring are methods that can expedite the software development projects by reducing the amount of up front requirements and design; hence these methods are embedded throughout the book but with just enough details and examples to not sidetrack the focus of this book. In addition, this book contains well separated, subjective material (opinion sidebars), comic illustrations, tips and tricks, all of which provide real-world and practical perspectives on relevant topics. Last but not least, this book demonstrates the complete lifecycle by building and following a sample application, chapter-by-chapter, starting from conceptualization to production using the technology and processes covered in this book. In summary, by using the technologies and methods covered in this book, the reader will be able to effectively develop enterprise-class Java applications, in an agile manner!

The Spring Framework is a major open source application development framework that makes Java/J2EE(TM) development easier and more productive. This book shows you not only what Spring can do but why, explaining its functionality and motivation to help you use all parts of the framework to develop successful applications. You will be guided through all the Spring features and see how they form a coherent whole. In turn, this will help you understand the rationale for Spring's approach, when to use Spring, and how to follow best practices. All this is illustrated with a complete sample application. When you finish the book, you will be well equipped to use Spring effectively in everything from simple Web applications to complex enterprise applications. What you will learn from this book * The core Inversion of Control container and the concept of Dependency Injection * Spring's Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP) framework and why AOP is important in J2EE development * How to use Spring's programmatic and declarative transaction management services effectively * Ways to access data using Spring's JDBC functionality, iBATIS SQL Maps, Hibernate, and other O/R mapping frameworks * Spring services for accessing and implementing EJBs * Spring's remoting framework Who this book is for This book is for Java/J2EE architects and developers who want to gain a deeper knowledge of the Spring Framework and use it effectively.
