There is little documentation on how to use the low level api for datastore and quite a lot on JPA and JDO and how it translates to it.

My question is: is there any advantage in coding against the JPA or JDO specs instead of accessing directly the low level api for datastore ?

From an initial look, it seems simple and straight forward but I am not sure if there are good reasons why not to do it.

Thanks Cx
