IBM has a pretty decent approach to this with "Data Access Beans" which are
basically a form of JDO.

Be wary if the data is updateable. The last time I talked with the vendor
about multi-VM caching with updateable data, I was given some papers on how
to roll my own cross-VM updating mechanisms. Not very easy. But maybe they
have improved since then. (This idea broke my cardinal rules about low-risk
development..... never take on a task in your project if it involves
something that could be the subject of a PhD dissertation. Transactional
cache coherency is one of those subjects, so we avoided the problem by
letting the database perform the caching.)
TOPLink would be okay if the data is read-only.

I would recommend you look into the TopLink O/R Mapping/Persistence tool.
They do cross-VM sharing/caching as well...which might be very useful if
you
need failover and such.
