It provides a database persistence layer that connects Java mapper interfaces to SQL statements through automatic package scanning and dependency injection. The project utilizes Spring Boot auto-configuration to automatically register session factories and templates based on detected data sources. It includes support for GraalVM native images, enabling the compilation of applications into standalone binaries with specific configurations for XML-based mappers. Capabilities cover the management of externalized persistence configuration via environment variables and properties, along with programmatic customization of the session factory. The framework also includes tools for isolated persistence testing using in-memory databases and integrated slice testing to verify architectural layers. ## Tags ### Data & Databases - [Spring Boot Database Access](https://awesome-repositories.com/f/data-databases/database-connectivity/spring-boot-database-access.md) — Connects Spring Boot applications to databases using MyBatis for persistence and SQL mapping. - [Relational Persistence Layers](https://awesome-repositories.com/f/data-databases/data-engineering-infrastructure/data-persistence-storage/data-storage-layers/relational-persistence-layers.md) — Implements a persistence layer that manages data storage via relational schemas and object-relational mapping. - [External Datastore Configurations](https://awesome-repositories.com/f/data-databases/external-datastore-configurations.md) — Manages database connectivity and mapper locations through externalized properties and environment variables. ### Development Tools & Productivity - [Automatic Mapper Registrations](https://awesome-repositories.com/f/development-tools-productivity/configuration-mappers/automatic-mapper-registrations.md) — Automatically identifies and registers data access mapper interfaces to enable dependency injection.
