Hibernate Persistence for Beginners

What is a Persistence Framework?

As the name implies, it has something to do with persisting things... this means that we're still talking about databases.  But what is it that we are persisting with this framework?

Objects (of course)

A persistence framework is something we use in Java to bridge the gap between Java and SQL.

Hopefully we've gone through all of my previous tutorials and have learned a thing or two about Java and SQL.  But one thing I haven't taught you yet, is how to put your knowledge of SQL into Java.

That's what I'll be teaching you throughout these Hibernate (persistence framework) tutorials.

And if you haven't guessed it already, Hibernate is a persistence framework that you can use in Java.  It's what allows you to write Java code (staying true to Object Oriented programming practices) and yet still be able to communicate with your database.  Cool eh?
