Red Hat is pleased to announce a new addition to its line of
performance-based certifications — JBoss Certified Developer in
Persistence. The new JBoss Certified Developer in Persistence has
demonstrated the knowledge, skills, and abilities needed to use the
Java™ Persistence API (JPA) with Hibernate® to
create, modify, and maintain persistent objects in business
applications. As with all of Red Hat certification exams, the JBCD -
Persistence Exam (EX297) continues the practice of evaluating knowledge
and skills through hands-on, lab-based exam.
About the Certification
The JBoss Certified Developer in Persistence credential demonstrates an
individual's readiness for the real-world tasks associated with using
the Java Persistence API with 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 allows application developers to
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
applications underlying infrastructure.
A JBoss Certified Developer in Persistence is able to perform the following tasks:
- Configure JPA/Hibernate
- Map Java objects to relational tables
- Map object associations to relationships
- Manage transactions
- Create and retrieve persistent objects
- Manipulate persistent objects
All JBCD certifications have a 'current' window for 3 calendar years.
See re-certification policies for more information.
