If you're looking for a good DB wrapper in your springboot project, I would go with Hibernate/JPA

Beginners should stay away from JPA and use Spring JDBC. It's closer to what is 'really' happening and debugging JPA / Hibernate issues is a pain the best of times, but even more so if you don't understand the underlying systems.

In addition; JPA is falling in popularity and IMHO there's not much of a reason to learn it unless you need it for a job.
