Hibernate is a persistence framework, while Spring is a web application framework that can make use of Hibernate, but does not include persistence features itself. A better comparison might be Spring vs. Struts/JSF. Why not head over to the Spring web site to read up on what it can do? There's also an introduction on The Server Side.

Spring is framework with IOC & AOP. Hibernate can be used to connect with daabase with ORM .

Spring does have means to work with Hibernate(support this with its database connectivity features)
