Difference between First and Second Level Cache in Hibernate [Answer]

If you have used Hibernate in past then you know that one of the strongest points of the Hibernate framework is caching, which can drastically improve the performance of the Java application's persistence layer if configured and used correctly. Hibernate provides caching at many levels e.g. first level cache at Session level, second-level cache at the SessionFactory level, and query cache to cache frequently executed SQL queries. The first level cache minimizes database access for the same object. For example, if you call the get() method to access Employee object with id = 1 from one session, it will go to the database and load the object into memory, but it will also cache the object in the first-level cache.

Difference between get and load in Hibernate

get vs load in Hibernate

Difference between get and load method in Hibernate is one of the most popular questions asked in Hibernate and spring interviews. Hibernate Session class provides two methods to access object e.g. session.get() and session.load() both looked quite similar to each other but there are subtle differences between load and get method which can affect the performance of the application. The main difference between get() vs load method is that get() involves database hit if an object doesn't exist in Session Cache and returns a fully initialized object which may involve several database calls while load method can return proxy in place and only initialize the object or hit the database if any method other than getId() is called on persistent or entity object.

Difference between save vs persist and saveOrUpdate in Hibernate

Save vs. saveOrUpdate vs. persist in Hibernate

What is the difference between save and saveOrUpdate or Difference between saving and persist are common interview question in any Hibernate interview, much like the difference between get and load method in Hibernate. Hibernate Session class provides a couple of ways to save an object into the database by methods like save, saveOrUpdate, and persist.  You can use either save(),  saveOrUpdate() or persist() based upon your requirement for persisting objects into the database. The key thing is that all these objects are used to store data into the database but they also make a transient object persistent in Hibernate.

How to send HTTP POST Request with JSON Payload to REST API using Curl Command?

There are many ways to test your RESTful Web services developed using Spring MVC e.g. you can use RESTAssured for automation testing or you can use Postman to manually test your RESTful Web service but nothing beats the elegant, comfort, power, and simplicity of using curl command to test RESTful web service. It is my favorite tool to test any RESTful web service and I have used in past to test various aspect of Spring REST application e.g. testing headers, testing authentication and authorization, testing different content types like JSON and XML, testing cookies, and testing different HTTP methods to perform CRUD operations. 

How to Consume JSON from RESTful Web Service and Convert to Java Object - Spring RestTemplate Example

So far, I have not written much about REST and RESTful web service, barring some interview questions like REST vs. SOAP, which is thankfully very much appreciated by my readers, and some general suggestions about the best books to learn REST in the past. Today I am going to write something about how to consume JSON from a RESTful Web Service in Java using Spring Framework. I will also talk about how to convert the JSON to Java objects using Jackson. You will also learn about the RESTTemplate class from the Spring MVC framework, and how you can use it to create a REST client in Java in just a few lines of code.

Difference between REST and GraphQL API with Example

Hello guys, I have been learning GraphQL since last week and should I say, I am really impressed with its flexibility and how it address some of the pertinent problems with REST APIs. If you don't know, The GraphQL is a query language from Facebook which aims to solves some common problems with REST like a explosion of endpoints, over fetching and under fetching of data, response structure, versioning, and most important performance and Scalability. If you have used REST APIs then you know that you need to send a lot of request to get the data you want. You not only need send multiple request but also you get a lot of unnecessary data which you don't really need, and also need to know multiple endpoints.

What is the use of DispatcherServlet in Spring MVC Framework?

If you have worked with Spring MVC then you should know what is a DispatcherServlet? It's actually the heart of Spring MVC, precisely the C of MVC design pattern or Controller. Every single web request which is supposed to be processed by Spring MVC goes through DispatcherServlet. In general, its an implementation of Front Controller Pattern which provides a single point of entry in your application. It handles all incoming requests. It is also the bridge between Java and Spring. Btw, the DispatcherServlet is like any other Servlet is declared in the web.xml with a URL pattern but the only special thing is that the URL pattern for dispatcher servlet is enough to map every single web request to DispathcherServlert.

7 Reasons to use Spring Framework for Creating RESTful Webservices in Java

REST has now become a standard way to develop web services and when it comes to Java, there are many frameworks and libraries available like JAX-RS, Restlet, Jersey, RESTEasy, Apache CFX, etc, but I encourage Java developers to use Spring framework to develop RESTful web services. But, some of you might ask, why use Spring Framework to develop RESTful web services in Java? What is the advantage and why it's better than other frameworks and libraries available out there? Well, the most important reason I think to use Spring for developing RESTful web service is that you can use your Spring MVC experience to develop RESTful web services.

What is bean scope in Spring Framework? Singleton, Prototype, Request scopes Example Tutorial

Java classes or POJO which are managed by Spring Framework are called Bean or Spring Bean and Bean scope in Spring framework or Spring MVC is scope for a bean managed by Spring IOC container. You may know that Spring is a framework that is based on Dependency Injection and Inversion of Control and provides bean management facilities to Java application. In Spring-managed environment bean (Java Classes) are created and wired by the Spring framework. Spring allows you to define how those beans will be created and the scope of the bean is one of those details. Scope are similar to access modifiers in Java which specifies visibility of a particular class. 

How View Resolver works in Spring MVC? [InternalResourceViewResolver Example]

Hello guys, if you are wondering what is view resolver in Spring MVC and what role InternalViewResolver class plays in Spring MVC then you have come to the right place. Earlier, I have explained to you how Spring MVC works internally and how it processes HTTP requests coming to your web application. One of the important parts of that processing was resolving views, which is handled by the ViewResolver interface, which is the V part of MVC. They are responsible for returning correct views to the client, both in the Spring MVC application as well as on REST APIs. In this article, you'll learn more about view resolvers in Spring MVC by explaining the InternalResourceViewResolver class. 

Difference between @RestController and @Controller Annotation in Spring MVC and REST

The @RestController annotation in Spring MVC is nothing but a combination of @Controller and @ResponseBody annotation. It was added into Spring 4.0 to make the development of RESTful Web Services in Spring framework easier. If you are familiar with the REST web services you know that the fundamental difference between a web application and a REST API is that the response from a web application is generally view (HTML + CSS + JavaScript)  because they are intended for human viewers while REST API just returns data in form of JSON or XML because most of the REST clients are programs. This difference is also obvious in the @Controller and @RestController annotation.

Top 20 Spring Framework Testing Interview Questions Answers for 2 to 5 Years Experienced

Testing is an important part of Software development but many people don't pay attention to it only to find bugs in the later stages of development that can be easily avoided by unit testing. When it comes to Java and Spring Boot development, we are lucky to have JUnit, Mockito, JsonPath, AssertJ, and some in-built testing facilities on Spring Framework and Spring Boot for our testing needs. Since the advent of DevOps, there is an increased focus on automation testing and that's why unit testing and integration testing has become important topics on Java Interviews and it's essential for Java developers to have in-depth knowledge about how to test a Spring framework and Spring Boot based Java application.

Spring Boot + Hibernate Tutorial and Example for Java Developers

Hello guys, if you want to learn how to use Spring Boot and Hibernate together in a Java application and look for examples and tutorials then you have come to the right place. In the past, I have shared how to use Spring Boot with MyBatis and Spring Boot + Redis example and In this article on Spring Boot, we will discuss how to integrate Spring Boot with Hibernate. We will build a simple Spring Boot application and use Hibernate to store the data. So first, let's look at what is Hibernate in Java? Hibernate framework provides an abstraction layer which means programmers need not worry about implementation. Hibernate will implement different modules for developers internally like writing queries to perform CRUD operations on the database and establishing connections to different kinds of databases. This is a Java-based solution for object-relational mapping.

Difference between @ContextConfiguration and @SpringApplicationConfiguration in Spring Boot Testing?

Hello folks, what is the difference between @ContextConfiguration and @SpringApplicationConfiguration is one of the frequently asked Spring Boot Testing interview questions which is often used to check if the candidate knows about how to unit test Spring boot application. Even though both @ContextConfiguration and @SpringApplicationConfiguration annotations are used along with SpringJUnit4ClassRunner to specify how to load the Spring application context, there is a subtle difference between them. Although @ContextConfiguration does a great job in loading application context it doesn't take full advantage of Spring Boot features. Spring Boot applications are ultimately loaded by either SpringApplication ( in the case of the JAR) or SpringBootServletInitializer. 

What is @SpringBootApplication Annotation in Java and Spring Boot? Example Tutorial

Hello guys, if you are wondering what is @SpringBootApplicaiton annotation and how to use it then you have come to the right place. Today, we'll learn about the @SpringBootApplication annotation, one of the most important annotations from the popular Spring Boot framework, which has changed the way Java developers use the Spring framework for writing Java applications. In this article, I'll explain to you the meaning of @SpringBootApplication and its use in a simple Spring Boot application. We use @SpringBootApplication annotation on our Application or Main class to enable a host of features e.g. Java-based Spring configuration, component scanning, and in particular for enabling Spring Boot's auto-configuration feature.

Difference between BeanFactory and ApplicationContext in Spring Framework

The difference between BeanFactory and ApplicationContext in Spring framework is another frequently asked Spring interview question mostly asked Java programmers with 2 to 4 years experience in Java and Spring. Both BeanFactory and ApplicationContext provide a way to get a bean from the Spring IOC container by calling getBean("bean name"), but there is some difference in their working and features provided by them. One difference between the bean factory and application context is that the former only instantiates bean when you call getBean() method while ApplicationContext instantiates Singleton bean when the container is started,  It doesn't wait for the getBean to be called. 

What is a Spring Data Repository? JpaRepository, CrudRepository, and PagingAndSortingRepository Example

Why use @Override annotation in Java? Coding Best Practice Example

@Override annotation was added in JDK 1.5 and it is used to instruct the compiler that method annotated with @Override is an overridden method from super class or interface. Though it may look trivial @Override is particularly useful while overriding methods that accept Object as a parameter just like equals, compareTo or compare() method of Comparator interface. @Override is one of the three built-in annotations provided by Java 1.5, the other two are @SuppressWarnings and @Deprecated.

How to redirect a page or URL using JavaScript and JQuery - Example

Redirecting a web page means, taking the user to a new location. Many websites uses redirects for many different reasons, e.g. Some websites redirect users from the old domain to new domain, some redirect from one page to another e.g. a more relevant page. If you are a Java programmer and worked previously with Servlet and JSP, then you might be familiar with SendRedirect and Forward methods, which are used to redirect users in web applications. Actually, there are two kinds of redirect, Server side redirect, and client-side redirect. In Server side redirect, the server initiates redirection, while in a client-side redirect, the client code does the redirection. Redirecting a web page using JavaScript and JQuery is a client-side redirection.
