##What Is Elide?
Elide is a Java library that let's you stand up a JSON API web service with minimal effort starting from a JPA annotated data model. Elide is designed to quickly build and deploy production quality web services that expose databases as services. Beyond the basics, elide provides:
- Access to JPA entities via JSON API CRUD operations. Entities can be explicitly included or excluded via annotations.
- Patch Extension Elide supports the JSON API Patch extension allowing multiple create, edit, and delete operations in a single request.
- Atomic Requests All requests to the library (including the patch extension) can be embedded in transactions to ensure operational integrity.
- Authorization All operations on entities and their fields can be assigned custom permission checks limiting who has access to your data.
- Audit Logging can be customized for any operation on any entity.
- Extension Elide allows the ability to add custom business logic and to changeout the default JPA provider (Hibernate)
- Client API Elide is developed in conjunction with a Javascript client library that insulates developers from changes to the specification.
