Spring Data JDBC Table annotation

As explained in Java Persistence with Spring Data and Hibernate epub

The Spring Data JDBC Table annotation maps a domain class to a relational database table.

The Spring Data JDBC @Table annotation maps a domain class to a named relational database table. Unlike javax.persistence.Table, it belongs to Spring Data JDBC. section 15.1

Mapping User to USERS

@Table("USERS") public class User { ... } explicitly associates User with the USERS table. Fields can use Spring Data JDBC @Column annotations for ID, USERNAME, and REGISTRATION_DATE.

A typical mapping works with related Spring Data JDBC annotations and repository infrastructure:

  • @Id identifies the entity identifier, while @Column names its corresponding database column. section 15.1

How Java Persistence with Spring Data and Hibernate epub covers it

How deep it goes
Defines explicit class-to-table mapping and distinguishes Spring Data JDBC annotations from JPA equivalents.
Examples
Uses a User class mapped to a USERS table with ID, USERNAME, and REGISTRATION_DATE columns.
What it assumes
Assumes basic Java classes and relational tables, while distinguishing Spring Data JDBC mappings from JPA mappings.
What you can do after
Apply it to associate a Spring Data JDBC entity with an explicitly named database table.
How it connects
Connects domain entities with Spring Data JDBC, @Id, @Column, CrudRepository, and relational database tables.
