Choosing something more lightweight can be (in my opinion often is) good for productivity and maintainability.
One of the main things I look for when choosing libraries/frameworks is what dependencies they have - how many other frameworks do they force me to use (at specific versions). Another thing is how many minutes it takes me to get a basic understanding of the API. ORM alternatives: I've used PriDE and recently found jLynx. Both are thin layers over jdbc with no dependencies (jLynx uses slf4j). 15min with either of these is all you need. http://pride.sourceforge.net/ http://code.google.com/p/jlynx-persistence-framework/ /Anders Evan Chooly wrote: > Except the question wasn't about learning.
