    Learned "Back-End Web Programming" From This Book
  

*by D***Y on Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2011*

This book is a rare find.  It is completely practical, teaching you what you need to know to use Spring and Hibernate (or JDO).  It also gives you a background on how far Java web services have come from a much more strict and IMO bureaucratic approach.As a tech lead, I even got copies of this book for new hires that were not versed in POJO or even web development. (Or even Java in one case!)And while this book is completely practical it does the best job I have seen to give the pros and cons of each choice you can make with POJO, in a completely no-nonsense way.  How refreshing!  For instance, you can save objects to a database in 3 basic ways, each of which can either preserve the class hierarchy, save space, but possibly cost multiple table reads per object.  It is up to you to choose what is important in your situation.  Quick lists of trade-offs are all throughout this book.I'm a little late to review this book, and Spring has gone on to add many more features (for instance lots of annotations to replace XML configuration files).  However, I can't rate this book more highly and I still think it would make a great first book into POJOs, Spring, or web back-end web development.

    Great practical resource
  

*by R***L on Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2009*

Despite the fact that it was written a few years ago, it is no less valuable today in helping developers understand how to create an application architecture using the Domain Model approach. I have been using the Exposed Domain Model architectural pattern ever since I began using the Spring framework a few years ago, although I had no idea that's what it is called until reading this book. I really appreciated how the author compared its use with the façade-driven Domain Model architectural pattern.It provides a brief introduction to the Spring Framework and Hibernate (as well as JDO), and covers at least enough material on each in order to demonstrate how to put both to use (together) in the example application that is used throughout the book. But it would be best to consult any of the numerous books and/or web resources that target those technologies specifically for more background and up-to-date implementation reference.Other than a simple Servlet example in the Exposed Domain Model chapter, the book does not cover the Presentation layer - the focus is on the Business/Model layer.Certainly the development framework landscape has changed and evolved since this book was published, but it's still a great practical resource which remains relevant in addressing important facets of application architecture that need to be considered and planned out.

### ⭐⭐ 







  
  
    useless book about pojos in context of spring, ejb, hibernate and jdo
  

*by A***S on Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2011*

the book lightly covers the use of pojo in spring, ejb, hibernate, and jdo.  the coverage of each topic is like say 30-40%.  you are probably better of getting spring and hibernate books to get complete picture of pojos in spring and hibernate.  all in all, this book is pure waste of time and shouldn't exist at all.
