Challenge Overview
Project Overview
Trackster is a web-based application. It is a behavior tracking app marketed towards dentists who wish to improve their practice. Through a combination daily user inputs and data synchronization with office management software, the application lets small practice owners track and correlate desirable behaviors of their staff (hygienists, dentists, and front desk administrators) a.k.a. Key Behavioral Indicators (KBIs) with Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that measure the success of their practice.
The backend module should provide the models and services that are defined in the system architecture,
The services will query data from and store data to the MySQL database, and integrate with other libraries that provide email sending.
Services will use data access layer to query and manage the data in the database and the services will use JPA 2.0 (specifically Hibernate 4.1) to access the database.
This assembly provides all models, exceptions, JPA mapping file, database trigger and partial backend services.
