I'm new to EJBs and the concepts of both session and entity beans. As such, I'm
particularly interested in trying to
clarify the use of entity beans.
As I understand it, entity beans are used primarily to represent data in a database.
Now, it I've got 4 GB of data in
a database with 70 tables and 1-many relationships in some cases, how would I use
entity beans to cache data in the
database to reduce DB access?
So if I've got a central table in the DB representing the core entities of the DB, do
you cache the entire table and
then instantiate as needed entity beans that represent the related data coming off of
the cached table/beans?
I'm trying to determine if EJBs are the way to go for helping to serve up dynamic
content on a web site where the
content is in the DB.
Thanks in advance for any help.
