MyBatis is a persistence framework with support for custom SQL, stored procedures and advanced mappings.
MyBatis eliminates almost all of the JDBC code and manual setting of parameters and retrieval of results. MyBatis can use simple XML or Annotations for configuration and map primitives, Map interfaces and Java POJOs (Plain Old Java Objects) to database records.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Maps Java methods to SQL statements.
- Provides a mapping engine that maps SQL results to object trees in a declarative way
- Use all your database functionality like stored procedures, views, queries of any complexity and vendor proprietary features. It is often a good choice for legacy or de-normalized databases or to obtain full control of SQL execution.
- Simplifies coding compared to JDBC. SQL statements are executed with a single line.
- Integrates with Spring Framework and Google Guice.
- Supports declarative data caching. A statement can be marked as cacheable so any data retrieved from the database will be stored in a cache and future executions of that statement will retrieve the cached data instead hitting the database. MyBatis provides a default cache implementation based on a Java HashMap and default connectors for integrating with: OSCache, Ehcache, Hazelcast and Memcached. It provides an API to plug other cache implementations.
