Our friends at JavaLobby were very gracious in working with me to produce an excellent online presentation on how the best-of-class JDBC drivers is the only choice for anyone considering Java Object/Relational persistence mechanisms. This is an important consideration for anyone dipping their toes into the murky waters of O/R persistence development.

At the conclusion of the presentation, I invite you to talk to me about your thoughts on this presentation. You can find me email, IM or Skype handle on this page.

PS - I should also thank Mike Keith, the Oracle co-spec lead of JSR-220 for his guidance on configuring Oracle's EJB 3.0 implementation.
