The logic we use is persisting the data in Liferay DB .i.e... DB configured in portal-ext. properties. But in my case I had a requirement where in, Client had a separate DB schema and he wanted complete separation of logic from Liferay DB. All he needed is Crud operations on those tables. We also have requirement that Client wants there Data on Separate Schema or Separate DB.

After searching and analyzing different blogs, I came to conclusion and starting implementing them. As we are using service-builder, it means that you need code for tables other than liferay default DB. So let’s start our code with basic data model as shown below.
