Your project can have container managed transaction or application managed transaction.

Container managed is when your server (jboss, glassfish, etc) that has JTA handles the transaction, that is the default behavior.

Application managed is when your project handles the transaction. You can use the UserManagerTransaction that will give you control over the transaction methods or you can use "JPA programmatic transactions" (I just invented this term).

You can create a transaction programmatic transaction by doing entityManager.getTransaction().begin(). You can use the Hibernate transaction, that is the same of the Hibernate transaction.

With Hibernate transaction you will be accessing all Hibernate functions that do not belong to the JPA Spec.
