## Aggregated Hibernate O/RM JavaDocs

Hibernate provides both

- a native API comprised centrally around `SessionFactory` and `Session`
- an implementation of the JSR-317 Java Persistence API (JPA) specification comprised centrally around `EntityManagerFactoryImpl` and `EntityManagerImpl` (the Hibernate implementations of `EntityManager` and `EntityManagerFactory`, respectively)

### Native API

In addition to SessionFactory and Session, applications using the native API will often utilize the following interfaces:

- `Configuration`
- `Transaction`
- `Query`
- `Criteria`
- `Projection`
- `Projections`
- `Criterion`
- `Restrictions`
- `Order`
- `Example`

These interfaces are fully intended to be exposed to application code.

### JPA

The JPA interfaces are all defined by the JPA specification. For details see `javax.persistence`

### Package Groups

This documentation groups packages into the following 3 categories:

- API - classes to which application code will generally bind directly.
- SPI - classes to which application developers or integrators will commonly bind directly in order to develop extensions to Hibernate, or to alter its behavior in some way.
- Internal - classes which are intended only to be used by Hibernate. Use of these classes outside of Hibernate specific use cases is not supported. Moreover, these contracts can change frequently between releases whereas APIs and SPIs are more stable.

Additionally, we highlight a 4th category Testing Support which is a set of classes useful for building Hibernate test cases.
