Good persistence layers are hard to find. I was thinking about trying to implement on based on Fowler's PEAA Mapping Patterns. Apparently, others thought that was a good idea too because Jaxor has just been released into the wild. I am betting that Jaxor will be a very successful open source tool. Watch out Hibernate.

Jaxor certainly looks interesting, but comparing it to Hibernate (or OJB) is apples to oranges in my opinion. Jaxor approaches O/R from the "Relational" perspective, whereas OJB approaches it more from ther "Object" perspective. Nothing wrong with that, of course... having choice is always good :)

This a blanket statement with little actual, verifiable merit. What is your reasoning for this? The only key difference that I know of that can be applied as "Object vs relational" is that Jaxor uses SQL for queries while OJB and hibernate have object query languages.
