It is an ORM Framework to develop persistence logic. It is:
- Opensource
- Lightweight
- Provides abstraction over JDBC
- No need for any containers (jsp, servlet etc etc).
- Supports POJO and POJI model programming
- Can be used individually as well as other technologies like Spring etc
- Does not require you to implement any Hibernate API interfaces & neither it requires you to extend any hibernate clases. Hence we can say it is a loosely coupled framework
- Allows us to develop Object Based Persistence logic and hence it is called ORM framework
- Can change from one DB software to another without having to change any Objects etc
- Transaction management, locking, caching etc is all in-built.
