How is persistence handled/managed?
Skyway generated applications provide a flexible set of persistence options which range from automatically generated J2EE compliant container managed persistent entity beans, all the way to direct SQL invocations through our execute SQL step. Skyway can integrate with existing relational database tables through a discovery mechanism which is similar to our Java service discovery mechanism in that each discovered table can be represented in Skyway as a structure and data store. Again, these structures and data stores can be utilized in any Skyway process and Skyway Visual Perspectives automatically generates the code required to persist data into the preexisting relational database tables. We can handle complex relationship mapping and composite primary key mappings as well as providing an XA compliant interface to your existing databases as described above. For structures which are created within the Skyway modeling environment, each structure will be generated as an entity bean and wi
