Depends entirely on what you're looking for.  You can go with raw JDBC
for maximum control, or use an ORM layer lihe Hibernate to abstract
away a lot of the work and give you (some) database independence.

I use the QuantumDB plugin.(http://quantum.sourceforge.net/)  Provides a
basic access to DBs with JDBC. It did not work with older PostgreSQL
versions, but seems to work well with 8.1.
