I'm also interested in replication, what is the recommended approach to replication with hibernate.
Thanks
Dave
Hi Cameron - welcome to the forums. I'm relatively new to Java and have been thrown in the deep end with Spring etc. Part of my project will involve Hibernate. Apart from your book obviously is there any site that provides a good newbie reference including idiomatic usage.

While Spring and Hibernate are two very different technologies, you'll find that having a fundamental knowledge of Hibernate will really make integrating Hibernate into your applications much easier. And that's what my book does - it really helps the reader understand the fundamentals of how Hibernate works, and what Hibernate is doing behind the scenes.
As far as replication goes, Hibernate might not be the best tool for that task, especially if it's large amounts of data. If it's simply disaster recovery replication, then most databases have that built into them, and using the built in replication and backup process is best.
