Beginning jOOQ: Learn to Write Efficient and Effective Java-Based SQL Database Operations

This book teaches you how to use the jOOQ library to manage SQL database operations in Java and JVM applications. It provides practical examples and case studies to demonstrate how jOOQ offers a more efficient and versatile alternative to Object-Relational Mapping frameworks like Hibernate and JPA, with a natural, native-SQL feeling for developers. You'll learn how to maximize the full potential of your SQL database with advanced query syntax and functions, and how to use high-performance approaches like reactive, data streaming, and cloud-native programming to get data from SQL tables. You'll also learn how to add jOOQ to existing Hibernate, Spring Boot, or Quarkus applications, and how to safely handle data access code within frameworks like the Java Persistence API (JPA).
