[Springframework-developer] Service Data Objects

[Colin S. <col...@ex...>]

On the Hibernate mailing list, I saw a reference to a new joint JSR 
proposal (by IBM and BEA) for something called Service Data Objects. 
Looks pretty interesting actually, and has some potential future 
implications for Spring.

 Nah this is way more ambitious. This looks a little bit like carrierwave 
 plus some other ideas. Read the whitepaper:

 The even mention Hibernate twice.
 
 Very interesting stuff. They are talking about externalizable object 
 graphs and re-synchronizing with optimistic semantics, which is a HUGE 
 validation of what we've been doing for the past two years. ;)
 
 On the surface it looks almost a little bit like OFBiz + carrierwave + 
 some XML stuff. I need to get a feel for how (if) it all hangs together.
