We use straight JDBC and Hibernate on our intranet. JDBC is used for where speed is needed, like hitting the database for nav functions etc... but Hibernate for pure intranet based applications like holiday forms or purchase ordering, because it's nice to persist/unpersist complex application model objects without worrying about all the SQL hassle to do this, and speed is not an absolute, though saying this Hibernate does not visibly slow anything down at all, it's actually v. quick and easy. Initial learning curve but once you're in it's good stuff to use, and boasts being the most widely used ORM on any platform, so there's good support (part of Jboss now too I believe).
That's my 2p.
