Comparison of Spring JDBC and Hibernate Technologies in Interaction with PostgreSQL Database at Basic Level
Working with different DBMS for programmers in their daily work represents a significant challenge in terms of choosing the appropriate way of connecting to the DBMS for the appropriate needs, given that a significant number of factors can influence the same. Although experience is usually one of the important elements that has influence on the selection of the appropriate way to connect to a DBMS, the choice can still vary from system to system and from situation to situation. For this reason, it is necessary to conduct appropriate analysis and research in accordance with various factors that can be an indicator of whether a connection with a DBMS is good or bad. In this research, an analysis was performed between the two leading methods of interaction between Java Spring Boot applications and PostgreSQL databases, namely Spring JDBC and Spring Hibernate. The results of the analysis indicate that there are certain differences in the speed of query execution in certain situations, which Java programmers should pay special attention to when choosing one of the two mentioned technologies to achieve more complex functionalities.
