Appendix C. Hibernate SQL Dialects

Getting Fluent in the Local SQL

Hibernate ships with detailed support for many[9] commercial and free relational databases. While most features will work properly without doing so, it’s important to set the hibernate.dialect configuration property to the right subclass of org.hibernate.dialect.Dialect, especially if you want to use features like native or sequence primary key generation or session locking. Choosing a dialect is also a very convenient way of setting up a whole raft of Hibernate configuration parameters you’d otherwise have to deal with individually.
