That is NOT a silly question. People have been banging thier heads against this one for a while and haven't gotten to a generally agreed upon answer yet.
Having said that, some popular choices are: JDBC, JDO, EJB, Hibernate, iBatis. Hibernate is currently the hot item, but opinions vary to say the least. The general problem is known as object-relational mapping. This topic is way outside the scope of this list, but there's lots of infomation around. Don't expect any of the existing solutions to be perfect. Each has its own drawbacks and learning curve.
