Java Persistence API (JPA)
In online Chapter 29, we introduce Java Persistence API (JPA). In that chapter, you’ll learn how to autogenerate Java classes that represent the tables in a database and the relationships between them—known as object-relational mapping—then use objects of those classes to interact with a database. As you’ll see, storing data in and retrieving data from a database will be handled for you—the techniques you learn in this chapter will typically be hidden from you by JPA.
