Red Hat Certificate of Expertise in Persistence

The  Red Hat Certificate of Expertise in Persistence credential demonstrates an individual's readiness for the real-world tasks associated with using the Java™ Persistence API (JPA) with JBoss Hibernate®. The JPA is a Java programming language framework for managing relational data, and Hibernate is a high-performance object-relational persistence and query service that implements the JPA.

JPA with Hibernate lets application developers create, modify, and extend applications more efficiently by developing persistent classes in an object-oriented idiom, speeding up development and maintenance time and providing more long-term flexibility in the application’s underlying infrastructure.

A Red Hat Certificate of Expertise in Persistence developer is able to:

  • Configure JPA/Hibernate.
  • Map Java objects to relational tables.
  • Map object associations to relationships.
  • Manage transactions.
  • Create and retrieve persistent objects.
  • Manipulate persistent objects.
