Sample text

Persistent identity, or an identifier, is the key that uniquely identifies an entity instance and distinguishes it from all the other instances of the same entity type. An entity has a persistent identity when there exists a representation of it in the data store; that is, a row in a database table. If it is not in the database then even though the in-memory entity may have its identity set in a field, it does not have a persistent identity. The entity identifier, then, is equivalent to the primary key in the database table that stores the entity state.

The domain class Address does not have an identifier, yet the table that it would be stored in must have one if it is to be part of relationships. We could construct a primary key out of all of the columns in the ADDRESS table, but this is considered bad practice. Therefore the ID column is introduced and the object relational mapping will have to adapt in some way. 5 CHAPTER 1 ■ INTRODUCTION Figure 1-4. Three scenarios for relating employee and address data Scenario (A) of Figure 1-4 shows the ideal mapping of this relationship.

Enterprise developers have problems to solve, and they need features sufficient to solve those problems. What they don’t like is being forced to eat a heavyweight persistence model that introduces large overhead because it is solving problems that many do not even agree are problems. • Local, but mobile. A persistent representation of data does not need to be modeled as a full-fledged remote object. Distribution is something that exists as part of the application, not part of the persistence layer.
