Native

For working with platform-specific native libraries.
  • JavaCPP - Provides efficient and easy access to native C++.
  • JNA - Work with native libraries without writing JNI. Also provides interfaces to common system libraries.
  • JNR - Work with native libraries without writing JNI. Also provides interfaces to common system libraries. Same goals as JNA, but faster, and serves as the basis for the upcoming Project Panama.

Natural Language Processing

Libraries that specialize in processing text.
  • Beagle - Stored full-text search query engine.
  • CogCompNLP - Provides common annotators for plain text input. (Research and Academic Use License)
  • CoreNLP - Provides a set of fundamental tools for tasks like tagging, named entity recognition, and sentiment analysis. (GPL-3.0-or-later)
  • DKPro - Collection of reusable NLP tools for linguistic pre-processing, machine learning, lexical resources, etc.
  • Lingua - Natural language detection library, especially suited for short paragraphs of text.
  • LingPipe - Toolkit for tasks ranging from POS tagging to sentiment analysis.

Networking

Libraries for building network servers.

  • Undertow - Web server providing both blocking and non-blocking APIs based on NIO. Used as a network layer in WildFly. (LGPL-2.1-only)
  • urnlib - Represent, parse and encode URNs, as in RFC 2141. (GPL-3.0-only)

ORM

APIs that handle the persistence of objects.
  • Apache Cayenne - Provides a clean, static API for data access. Also includes a GUI Modeler for working with database mappings, and DB reverse engineering and generation.
  • Doma 2 - Database access framework that verifies and generates source code at compile time using annotation processing as well as native SQL templates called two-way SQL.
  • Ebean - Provides simple and fast data access.
  • EclipseLink - Supports a number of persistence standards: JPA, JAXB, JCA and SDO.
  • Hibernate - Robust and widely used, with an active community. (LGPL-2.1-only)
