What are the capabilities of HAPI Framework?
What will be the data source for it?
Can it connect to any EHR Database?
Can I Integrate it to EPIC Rest API's?
What I will have to do if I want the data from Cerner?

Have you read through the HAPI documentation?
HAPI is the FHIR Java reference implementation. It includes both client and server capabilities. So it has code that allows you to query FHIR servers (Epic, Cerner, whatever) and parse that information into Java objects. As a client, it doesn't connect to databases, it connects to FHIR interfaces.
It also has code that allows you to receive FHIR requests and store data. That data storage can be a native FHIR repository or you can map the FHIR objects to a custom data repository.
