There are few 'trends' that "most" in the community seem to agree on.

Eclipse was the first I noticed in this community.

Hibernate and Spring were the second and third (not sure the order). I don't think you'll find much dissension on using Hibernate.

But.... If you really wanted to open the door and think about all the reasons why or not, to use Hibernate, there is one downside.

RedHat/JBoss and Interface 21 do not get along. I get the impression that some people use iBatis not because they think it's better then Hibernate, but because of the riff here and a desire to use something "other" then Hibernate.

Personally, I'd use Hibernate.  +1.

As I progress with the Pluto 1.1 integration in the trunk I'm getting closer to the point of needing to write some new DAOs to persist some portlet domain objects. I would like to propose using Hibernate 3 for _new_ DAO implementations. Initially this just provides an easy way to write DAOs for object persistence, in the very long term we could plan on moving all DAOs to Hibernate to take advantage of schema creation and cross-database support. For 3.0 Hibernate would only be used for new DAOs and all existing data access code would remain as is.
