Criteria Api是Hibernate的一个很好的概念。根据我的观点，这些是我们可以区分HQL和Criteria Api的少数点

HQL is to perform both select and non-select operations on the data, but Criteria is only for selecting the data, we cannot perform non-select operations using criteria. HQL is suitable for executing Static Queries, where as Criteria is suitable for executing Dynamic Queries HQL doesn’t support pagination concept, but we can achieve pagination with Criteria. Criteria used to take more time to execute than HQL. With Criteria we are safe with SQL Injection because of its dynamic query generation but in HQL as your queries are either fixed or parametrized, there is no safe from SQL Injection

另一点是，我认为Criteria更适合在它的基础上构建，而不是在最终代码中直接使用。

它更适合使用它来构建库，而不是使用jpql或hql。

例如，我使用Criteria API构建了spring-data-jpa-mongodb-expressions(与spring数据QBE的方式相同)。

我认为spring数据查询代使用jpaql而不是标准，我不明白为什么。

对于动态查询，我更喜欢使用条件查询。例如，根据某些参数，动态地添加一些排序或保留一些部分(例如限制)要容易得多。

另一方面，我使用HQL进行静态和复杂的查询，因为它更容易理解/阅读HQL。此外，我认为HQL更强大一些，例如对于不同的连接类型。

我不想在这里白费口舌，但有一点很重要，那就是Criteria查询现在已被弃用。使用HQL。

条件是指定利用第二级查询缓存中的特殊优化的自然键查找的唯一方法。HQL没有任何方法来指定必要的提示。
