You've Been Lied To!

You've been told for years that using a persistence framework will insulate your application from changes to the database. As with other such claims, this turned out to be false. When porting a J2EE application to a NoSQL-style system, there are a number of factors to consider.

In this presentation, Tim  will take a traditional J2EE application and port it to Google's App Engine. Specific focus will be on the various persistence technologies: Hibernate, SpringJDBC, JPA, JDO, and DAOs.

The goal of this session is to have an interactive discussion about how to take a traditional app, and enable it for deployment in a Cloud environment.
