Using third-party persistence providers

Java Persistence API (JPA) for WebSphere® Application Server supports third-party persistence providers in their application server environment.

About this task

Java EE applications that use JPA functions can employ third-party persistence providers other than the providers that are included with the application server. Applications can also specify an Apache OpenJPA provider that is a different version than what is included with the application server, as long as the same version of the JPA specification is supported.

There are two basic means to incorporate third-party providers into an application:
  • Embedding the persistence provider inside an application
  • Using shared libraries
Depending on your requirements, you can embed a persistence provider inside an application, or place the persistence provider into a shared library.
