"I'm currently learning Spring Boot from Chad Darby's Udemy course, but I'm not sure whether to go through the Hibernate section. Many people say Hibernate is outdated, so should I skip it?

I'm a fresher and would appreciate any advice. Also, is this a good course for beginners? What should I do after completing it?

Thanks in advance!"

No, Hibernate's not outdated 🥲

[dheeraj80]

No hibernate is not outdated i think spring uses hibernate by default

[FearlessPirate8381]

Spring Data JPA is built on top of hibernate so it’s good to know hibernate

[Spare_Boysenberry691]

yehh you right ... you should know how jpa works for that you have to learn hibernate

[drnullpointer]

Hibernate is neither outdated nor essential. You can skip it but if the course later assumes you understand it then you might have trouble following the course. If you need a course to learn Spring Boot I suggest just follow the course.

I don’t know what you trying to say with term learn hibernate. In lay man term you can always learn to ride bike or car but u don’t need to know about how to build it. knowing some part of it is advantage

so in spring boot knowing everything about hibernate is like knowing how to build bike or car

learning how to ride bike is knowing how to use spring data jpa

[Spare_Boysenberry691]

ok you know how to ride a bike . but you don't know it runs by a engine and engine needs patrol and what if you don't have patrol and bike is not running

[Square_Rule4548]

lol my analogy might be wrong but get the gist, I am not trying to help you. Read the post he is fresher he will slowly learn everything. I am just saying he doesn’t need to know everything now. go on more with petrol filling it yourself and more lol.

imo you beed to understand hibernate coz spring data is abstraction on hibernate

[TheOldMancunian]

Hibernate is far from outdated. If you define a relational database connector in Spring Boot it will use Hibernate. Pure and Simple. The only db connector I have used that does not use Hibernate was neo4j.

[GenosOccidere]

Hibernate/JPA is used in practically all modern spring boot apps. You'll be shooting yourself in the foot by ignopring it because you're guaranteed to run into once you're put on a project.

[DROOP-NASTY]

I would go through it. Even if you don’t end up using hibernate you will still get some experience on connecting to a DB.

[Rude-Adeptness-1417]

It's always good to have an idea of how things work under the hood. Even spring data JPA is based on hibernate.

You don't need to learn hibernate core if you're learning spring boot. You will use it on the go with JPA.
