I saw a lot of Entity Bean or Hibernate, and the discussion is nothing more than performance and ease of use. I have a colleague. I am very proficient in the database, EJB, Hibernate. I can't make a clear. Decisive. It can be seen that the result is difficult. However, on the future of them, I can guess the bold guess: they will be unified
Not long ago, BEA architect came to China to sell his book, someone on-site questions, exactly Entity Bean is good or hibernate, he did not make a positive answer, but he stated that the idea of "BEA will open Enitiy Bean technology" Obviously, BEA has already felt pressure from Hibernate, but the deep destination is very "sinister", ie intensive hibernate, through opening sources, so that they are more and smaller.
There is another thing, from Hibernate's perspective, his founders know that Hibernate promotion, Hibernate can give them more reputation and interests, inseparable from J2EE, can't leave J2EE providers So now Hibernate has joined JBOSS, so Hibernate's founders will join JSR.
From a historical point of view, the two should be unified, because it is the interests, but our ordinary developers will be "dragged", and finally one day, ah, the two is the same. thing
