Hibernate is an open source Java persistence framework that lets Java applications connect to and work with a relational database using Object Relational Mapping. The Hibernate framework implements the Java Persistance API (JPA) which is the standard specification for object-relational mapping.

The courses on this page cover various concepts and features of ORM, JPA and Hibernate.
