<title>Introducing EJB3 Persistence</title>
<para>The EJB3 specification recognizes the interest and the success of
the transparent object/relational mapping paradigm. The EJB3 specification
standardizes the basic APIs and the metadata needed for any
object/relational persistence mechanism. <emphasis>Hibernate
EntityManager</emphasis> implements the programming interfaces and
lifecycle rules as defined by the EJB3 persistence specification. Together
with <emphasis>Hibernate Annotations</emphasis>, this wrapper implements a
complete (and standalone) EJB3 persistence solution on top of the mature
Hibernate core. You may use a combination of all three together,
annotations without EJB3 programming interfaces and lifecycle, or even
pure native Hibernate, depending on the business and technical needs of
your project. You can at all times fall back to Hibernate native APIs, or
if required, even to native JDBC and SQL.</para>
