Well, Hibernate is only one solution out there, I think. There seems to be one for Python as well: http://www.sqlalchemy.org/ but it doesn't seem to be as feature rich. Hibernate looks like it supports .net too.

Since will be programming to UNO (I assume) then we have our choices dictated by the set of UNO language integrations.
