Basically,

DTO: "Data transfer objects " can travel between seperate layers in software architecture.

VO: "Value objects " hold a object such as Integer,Money etc.

POJO: Plain Old Java Object which is not a special object.

Java Beans: requires a Java Class to be serializable, have a no-arg constructor and a getter and setter for each field
