Transient (computer Programming)
In the Java programming language, transient is a keyword used as a field modifier. When a field is declared transient, it would not be serialized even if the class to which it belongs is serialized. In Java, methods, classes and interfaces cannot be declared as transient.
In Hibernate and other persistance systems, transient describes an object that has been instantiated, but is not associated with a Hibernate session, i. e. the object resides in memory but is not being persisted.
