Summary

The aim of the new Java Persistence API is to simplify the development of persistent entities. It meets this objective through a simple POJO-based persistence model, which reduces the number of required classes and interfaces.

In this chapter, we covered a lot of ground, starting with the database schema that we reverse engineered using the JBoss tools plugins for Eclipse. Next, we coded the set of layers (producers, services, and controllers) that are part of the application, along with the JSF Facelets.

In the next chapter, we will discuss developing applications using JBoss Messaging Provider (HornetQ) by introducing examples with message-driven beans using the new simplified Java EE 7 API.
