Java Serialization: Persisting and Transmitting Objects

[ishaD]

Java Serialization is a mechanism that allows objects to be converted into a stream of bytes, which can be persisted to a file or transmitted over a network and later reconstructed back into objects. Serialization is essential for scenarios like data persistence, caching, and remote communication. However, it comes with considerations such as versioning, security, and performance. With Java's built-in serialization mechanism, developers can achieve object persistence and transmission efficiently. Alternatively, libraries like Jackson or Gson provide more control over serialization formats like JSON.

Java Serialization is a process where an object's state is converted into a byte stream, making it easy to save (persist) or transmit over a network. This byte stream can then be reverted back into a copy of the object through deserialization. Serialization is useful for saving object states to files or databases and for sending objects between Java applications via Remote Method Invocation (RMI).
