43 More Than Mapping

TopLink is much more than an "Object/Relational Mapping Tool." It increases performance, provides flexibility, and maximized productivity.

TopLink provides powerful features, such as:

  • A rich query framework that provides easy-to-use options to formulate sophisticated, dynamic queries. Developers can define queries in a variety of ways, both in the application code or in the TopLink Mapping Workbench.

  • A transaction framework that provides object-level transaction support. The transaction framework supports direct management of transactions as well as support for external transaction management through JTA/JTS.

  • Caching functionality that improves system performance and ensures object identity. The cache is completely configurable and can be used in a single server or in a clustered environment with cache synchronization.
