What is EclipseLink?

EclipseLink is a Java persistence solution and data conversion service. It provides:

  • A JPA implementation (Java Persistence API) for accessing relational databases (and EIS data sources).
    • And a POJO API which the JPA implementation is based on.
  • A JAXB implementation (JAva XML Binding) for converting Java objects to and from XML documents.
    • And a POJO API which the JAXB implementation is based on.
  • An SDO implementation (Service Data Objects).
  • A database web services adapter.

The original source contribution for EclipseLink came from Corporation's TopLink product.
