Hi Vikas, Normal 0 SessionFactory is an interface and extends Referenceable, Serializable. Creates Sessions. Usually an application has a single SessionFactory. Threads servicing client requests obtain Sessions from the factory. Implementors must be threadsafe. SessionFactorys are immutable. The behaviour of a SessionFactory is controlled by properties supplied at configuration time. These properties are defined on Environment. The SessionFactory is the concept that is a single data store and thread safe. Because of this feature, many threads can access this concurrently and the sessions are requested, and also the cache that is immutable of compiled mappings for a specific database. A SessionFactory will be built only at the time of its startup. In order to access it in the application code, it should be wrapped in singleton. This wrapping makes the easy accessibility to it in an application code. Thanks
