[ajug-announce] Spring Forward with Java & JPA

[Burr Sutter]

Hello AJUG Members,

Our March event will be held on March 18. As always, meet some great people,
network, and listen to this month's great presentation! I look forward to
seeing you on Tuesday night.
Bring a Java-capable friend! And since we are just a few days away from the
official beginning of Spring, we have a related presentation:

Topic: Enterprise JPA with Spring 2.5

Date: March 18th (3rd Tuesday)

Location: Holiday Inn Select (details below)

Time: 7:00 PM until 9:00 PM

Cost: Free (Thank You Sponsors!)

Description:

The Java Persistence API, part of the EJB3 & JEE5 specifications, gets
entity beans right by following the POJO persistence model of JDO and
Hibernate. This presentation will help you take your JPA development to the
next level. Organize projects that use JPA in large teams, tips for unit and
integration testing, and leveraging Spring 2.5 for JPA development are the
topics we'll cover.
