jOOQ's source of inspiration, similar products

When you consider jOOQ for your project, you might also have considered any of these similar products:

• Querydsl: Focusing on the DSL and abstracting "backend integrations", such as SQL, JPA, collections, etc.
• JaQu: Writing SQL statements using actual Java expressions
• iciql: A fork of JaQu

And database tools, such as

• ActiveJDBC: A simple mapping tool implementing ActiveRecords in a Ruby-like way

And OR-mapping tools, such as

• Hibernate: The mother of all inspiration to Java persistence
• JPA: The J2EE standard

jOOQ's little sister

jOOX stands for Java Object Oriented XML. It is a simple wrapper for the org.w3c.dom package, to allow for fluent XML document creation and manipulation where DOM is required but too verbose. jOOX only wraps the underlying document and can be used to enhance DOM, not as an alternative.
