Unlike other frameworks and APIs, spring does not impose itself
wholly on to the design of a project. Spring is modular and has
been divided logically into independent packages, which can
function independently. The architects of an application have
the flexibility to implement just a few spring packages and
leave out most of the packages in spring. The "Spring Framework"
would not feel bad with this attitude and on the contrary
encourages users to introduce Spring into existing applications
in a phased manner. So no matter what kind of framework you are

You may be thinking "not another framework." Why should you read this article, or download the Spring Framework (if you haven't already), when there are so many J2EE frameworks, or when you could build your own framework? The sustained high level of interest in the community is one indication that Spring must offer something valuable; there are also numerous technical reasons.

I believe that Spring is unique, for several reasons:

Working with object-oriented software and a relational database can be cumbersome
and time consuming in today's enterprise environments. Hibernate is an object/relational
mapping tool for Java environments. The term object/relational mapping (ORM) refers to
the technique of mapping a data representation from an object model to a relational
data model with a SQL-based schema.

This tutorial provide step by step instructions on using Hibernate 3.0. Hibernate is popular open source object relational mapping tool for Java platform. It provides powerful, ultra-high performance object/relational persistence and query service for Java. Hibernate lets you develop persistent classes following common Java idiom - including association, inheritance, polymorphism, composition and the Java collections framework. The Hibernate Query Language, designed as a "minimal" object-oriented extension to SQL, provides an elegant bridge between the object and relational worlds.
