MySQL Cluster Connector for Java – replay available for part 1 of the webinar

The replay of the two webinars can now be accesed from mysql.com

Remember that the second part of the webinar will be on March 3rd (details below).

ClusterJ Architecture

MySQL have been working on a new way of accessing MySQL Cluster using Java. Designed for Java developers, the MySQL Cluster Connector for Java implements an easy-to-use and high performance native Java interface and OpenJPA plug-in that maps Java classes to tables stored in the high availability, real-time MySQL Cluster database.

There is a series of 2 webinars coming up, as always these are free to attend – you just need to register in advance:

Part 1: Tuesday, February 16, 2010: 10:00 Pacific time

• an overview of the MySQL Cluster Connector for Java
• what these technologies bring to Java developers
• implementation details of the MySQL Cluster Java API and Plug-In for OpenJPA
• configuring the connection to MySQL Cluster
• creating the Java Domain Object Model for your tables
