I share your dislike of singletons. Instead, I would recommend a service layer that knows the specifics of performing CRUD operations on simple model objects. Then look at something like spring to tie it all together. Ideally only the service layer would even know about iBatis in this implementation. That leaves you free to test or swap implementations, or work around later issues with the API. Sheldon
