Use a database with Clojure

Question

What methods to use a database from Clojure are there?

I know from Clojure you can do anything you can with Java, but that means that I may end up using something overly complicated (like Hibernate) which clashes with Clojure simplicity. Any recommendations or comments?

Answer 1

clojure-contrib has an sql library which is a thin wrapper around JDBC (java.sql.DriverManager). The test file that comes with it has some examples of its usage.
