Hibernate Team Posted Several Batoo JPA vs Hibernate Benchmarks - Proving Batoo Is Fast


Well, a short while ago the Batoo JPA was announced on TheServerside.com. In parallel an article was published on HighScalability.com. Both sites created a very good attention. HighScalability.com has become the host Hibernate team posted benchmarks that provided evidence in favor of their new competition.

As expected, Hibernate Team was so much surprised to see a product as in the same league as their product comes along with a bold promise - Over 15 times faster then Hibernate.

Batoo JPA Released!

The New JPA 2.0 Implementation, +15x Faster Than The Leading JPA Provider!

I loved the JPA 1.0 back in early 2000s. I started using it together with EJB 3.0 even before the stable releases. I loved it so much that I contributed bits and parts for JBoss 3.x implementations.
Those were the days our company was considerably still small in size. Creating new features and applications were more priority than the performance, because there were a lot of ideas that we have and we needed to develop and market those as fast as we can. Now, we no longer needed to write tedious and error prone xml descriptions for the data model and deployment descriptors. Nor we needed to use the curse called “XDoclet”.

Job trends reflect the decline on BB, Android overtook iPhone

Android's ever-growing success is quite a known fact. But the debate over the time was concentrated on the usability and the number of the applications each platform has.

Well Blackberry is going down although as not as fast Nokia and Microsoft duo. However, reflection on job trends from http://www.indeed.com/ reflect the Android's success story is well received by the industry and marked as the continuous trend for a few years ahead.

Have a look into the graph generated by indeed.com.

android, iphone, blackberry Job Trends graph
android, iphone, blackberry Job Trends Android jobs - iPhone jobs - Blackberry jobs
I wonder how Samsung's success with SGS 3 and HTC's One series will affect this graph in say 6 months...

Logging, Blessing and Curse


http://www.slf4j.org/
Logging can be blessing or curse...

No doubt that logging saves lives of developers and system administrators. But the truth is in inadequate hands it can turn to be a suicide.

Developers and system administrators not using it sensibly, can hit their application with a great performance penalty...!
