Question :What is the difference between session and entity beans? When should I
use one or the other? (EJB)
Answer :An entity bean represents persistent global data from the database; a
session bean represents transient user-specific data that will die when the
user disconnects (ends his session). Generally, the session beans
implement business methods (e.g. Bank.transferFunds) that call entity
beans (e.g. Account.deposit, Account.withdraw)
