Answer 1

Hibernate is an implementation of the JPA specification. JPA is just a specification, and a set of annotations and interfaces. You need an implementation of JPA to use it, and Hibernate is one of them. Just like to use JDBC, you need a database driver.

The package of the annotation is javax.persistence, so they're JPA annotations. Hibernate annotations are in the package org.hibernate.xxx.
