Does JPA/EJB3 framework provide standard way to do batch insert operation...? We use hibernate for persistence framework, So I can fall back to Hibernate Session and use com
Yes you can rollback to your JPA implementation if you wish in order to have the control you defined.
JPA 1.0 is rich on EL-HQL but light on Criteria API support, however this has been addressed in 2.0.
Session session = (Session) entityManager.getDelegate(); session.setFlushMode(FlushMode.MANUAL);
