Hibernate Caching

Hibernate is an open-source Object-Relational Mapping solution that provides a framework for mapping relational databases on an object-oriented representation of data. This reduces developers’ efforts in retrieving data from the database. Furthermore, to improve application performance and reduce load on the database, Hibernate provides caching features to reduce repetitive database calls.
