Working with Spring Data JDBC: An Introduction to JDBC & Spring

Skillsoft issued completion badges are earned based on viewing the percentage required or receiving a passing score when assessment is required. Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) is a Java API that provides developers with a common interface for connecting to a database, issuing queries and commands, and handling responses from the database. Learn more about JDBC in Spring and JdbcTemplate class through this course. Start by exploring the Spring framework and its JDBC APIs to understand the features available in relation to database integration. You will then get hands-on experience using Spring Boot to set up an application that uses Spring JDBC to connect to a database and run queries against it. The course will also help you investigate the implementation of CRUD (i.e., create, read, update, and delete) operations using a JdbcTemplate class, mapping a database table to a Java class, and the role of Spring's RowMapper interface to translate rows from a query execution to Java objects. After completing this course, you'll have a solid grasp of how the Spring framework simplifies database integration from a Java app.
