Can I use hibernate with NuoDB?

{question}

{answer}

NuoDB supports both versions 3.6.6 and 5 of Hibernate. NuoDB provides a Hibernate dialect (nuodb-hibernate.jar). In addition to the dialect, the nuodb-hibernate.jar file contains its own Driver and Connection classes, specifically designed for Hibernate. This is in order to be able to throw appropriate Hibernate exceptions related to connection errors.

The NuoDB JDBC driver must be installed in addition to the nuodb-hibernate.jar file.  You can find more information here.
