Polyglot Persistence: EclipseLink JPA for NoSQL, Relational, and Beyond

Java data access isn't just about reading and writing from relational databases. It's also about being able to persist your objects in NoSQL databases and mapping your objects to XML and to JSON for on-disk storage or for use in RESTful Web services. The persistence needs are evolving from predominantly relational to a mixture of heterogeneous data sources. In response to these needs, EclipseLink, the Java Persistence API (JPA) 2.0 and 2.1 reference implementation, is making support for NoSQL and other nonrelational databases a first-class citizen. This session introduces EclipseLink JPA's support for NoSQL and other nonrelational databases and shows through examples how easy it is to embrace polyglot persistence in your Java applications.
