4. Introduction to Hibernate
Hibernate is an Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) solution for JAVA. It is a powerful, high performance object/relational persistence and query service. It allows us to develop persistent classes following object-oriented idiom – including association, inheritance and polymorphism.
Hibernate Architecture
Hibernate:
1) itself opens connection to database,
2) converts HQL (Hibernate Query Language) statements to database specific statement,
3) receives result set,
4) then performs mapping of these database specific data to Java objects which are directly used by Java application.
Hibernate uses the database specification from Hibernate Properties file. Automatic mapping is performed on the basis of the properties defined in hbm XML file defined for particular Java object.
