Benefits of JPA over pure JDBC
- [Instructor] What if I told you that I could help save you time? I could literally give you back precious development time. Well, I'm going to show you the time-saving advantages of JPA over pure JDBC when it comes to performing one of the most common tasks when writing a Java application, querying a relational database. Let's learn more about the benefits of JPA over pure JDBC and it's time-saving features. In order to connect to a database from Java, you typically rely on an external framework or low level API provided by Java, like JDBC. JDBC stands for Java Database Connectivity. As I mentioned, JDBC is a low level Java API that provides the ability to interact with relational databases. Specifically, JDBC allows Java programs to connect to a database, query data in a database by running SQL directly against it, updating data in a database using SQL, and process the results of a database query. Let's say you have a TrackZilla ticket class. The ticket class has fields like id…
