currently we have FlushMode.NEVER and flush the session manually before we close it.
Is this guaranteed to be atomic or do we need to delve into the transaction API?

thanks, Tom

Well, it's guaranteed to flush all outstanding operations in one lump, but it's only going to be DB-atomic if you're using a transaction. Transactions are recommended even if you're not interested in atomicity. Some people will recommend using transactions even for read-only DB access.

In short: no, flush does not give you DB-level atomicity.
