Hibernation will also usually cause connections to peripheral devices to terminate; this may cause problems for peripherals that were in use when hibernation started.
Some organizations (mainly large enterprises) mandate automatic hibernation (e.g. as a network policy) if a computer system has been idle for a certain amount of time, mainly as an energy saving measure. This saves some energy at the cost of some lost productivity waiting for the state to be restored.
