Performance Comparison of Persistence Frameworks
Abstract
Description
One of the essential and most complex components in the software development process is the database. The complexity increases when the "orientation" of the interacting components differs. A persistence framework moves the program data in its most natural form to and from a permanent data store, the database. Thus a persistence framework manages the database and the mapping between the database and the objects. This paper compares the performance of two persistence frameworks ? Hibernate and iBatis?s SQLMaps using a banking database. The performance of both of these tools in single and multi-user environments are evaluated.
