Developing Entity EJBs require an application server and a relational database,
and, optionally, a Java IDE to improve productivity and simplify the development.
Eclipse IDE is the most commonly used open source Java IDE and MySQL database
is the most commonly used open source relational database. Oracle Enterprise Pack

plugins. Oracle has acquired the open source MySQL database. MySQL database
is available under the GPL license; a commercial license is also available without
the precondition to purchase support services from Oracle. In this chapter, we shall
