Thank you, I will look into this, that might be the best option. Btw. does anybody know if there already is a project which tries to marry JSF and Hibernate sort of?
This combination looks to me like a really good one, with
Hibernate objects being the data beans, a small framework doing the access control on top of hibernate as a backing bean
and JSF controls, directly bound to the hibernate object as the frontend.
(I am halfway there for an intranet project I am currently doing for my current employer)
In combination with Spring this might be the best you can get currently.
I don't like the plain JDBC route like Sun suggests particularily,
especially due to the fact that they keep the connection open in their standard implementation, which is impossible on anything else than a site with a few users.

DataTable also can take a javax.faces.model.DataModel, so if you create a DataModel, then you can control when and what to load on an as needed basis.
