What is an Entity Object in Oracle ADF?

EntityObject in ADF represents an individual Object in the data source. Such as database Tables. It contains all the properties of the database table.

Analogy: EntityObject in oracle ADF represents a table in the database which stores the data.


Entity Object contains all the properties of the database table, such as Database Constraints, Primary Keys, Foreign Keys, etc. and also table column properties such as Columns, Column Type, Column Precision Scale, Column Default Value, etc.

Entity Object is responsible for facilitating DML operation in database tables. Before it pushes the data in the database it validates with all the constrains of the database table and ensures that all the data it is sending in the data is correct. This helps in avoiding any corrupt data posting in the database. This helps in reducing database calls and adds to the real-time performance of the Application.
