The state of the object is saved to permanent storage. This is done by object serialization. Here an object graph is marshaled into a compact representation . When the object graph is serialized, it is converted into a byte stream. The developer can then push data over the network or save the stream to a storage such as a file system, database or JNDI tree. However, object serialization has some drawbacks. For example, A file system stores a huge amount of serializable employee objects. . | EJB: Entity Bean Presenter: Nguyễn Xuân Vinh Information Technology Faculty Nong Lam University ACCP2005/EJB Session 5 / of 33 Session Objectives Describe the concept of persistence.
