Just a question: Why should someone use this instead of hibernate?

Well I myself haven’t really used Hibernate or any ORM library. Having said that and looking briefly at Hibernate, DBUtils can be used with databases that aren’t relational. Other developers can implement a MongoDB Database type to work with DBUtils. The reason why I have MySQL, SQLite, and H2 as out of the box Database types is because they are supported on Sponge (at least since the last time I looked at the docs for the DatabaseService).

This would be more suited in the Plugin Resources category

This is actually a plugin itself though, I’m not sure the move is justified.
