On behalf of the Spring Data team I'd like to announce the general availability of our Ingalls release train. After nine months of development, this release not only contains a huge set of new features, improvements and bug fixes, it also marks the conclusion of a branch of Spring Data that has helped developers dealing with persistence for more than 5 years --- even 8, if you count in some module's predecessors.

The release ships more than 630 tickets fixed in total. Here's a very truncated list of the most important features shipping with the release:

• Upgrade to Spring 4.3 as Spring Framework baseline.
• Add Spring Data LDAP (the Spring Data related bits of Spring LDAP) to the release train.
• Elevate Spring Data for Apache Cassandra to a Core module, give it a complete overhaul and upgrade it to Cassandra 3. User defined types, support for Java 8 Stream and Optional etc.
• Performance improvements in object-to-store mapping by avoiding reflection in favor of ASM generated code using method handles.
• More aggregation framework for MongoDB.
• Improved stream execution verification in JPA (reports a missing surrounding transaction).
• …

In preparation of the upcoming Spring Boot 1.4.4 release, I am pleased to announce the availability of the seventh service release of Spring Data release train Hopper. The release ships 39 tickets fixed and is a recommended upgrade for all users.

On behalf of the Spring Integration team, I am pleased to announce that the 4.3.7.RELEASE of Spring Integration is now available.

This release contains a few important bug fixes as well as a couple of improvements.

In particular, this version uses the recently announced Spring Framework 4.3.6.

Please be aware that some performance issues were detected when using Spring Integration with Spring Framework versions 4.3.4 and 4.3.5. We recommend that all users upgrade to this version, but this could be particularly important for users of Spring Integration versions 4.3.5 and 4.3.6, which used those versions of Spring Framework respectively. See this issue…

On behalf of the team, I am happy to announce that Spring Framework 4.3.6 is available now.

This maintenance release is the base for the upcoming Spring Boot 1.4.4 and 1.5.0 releases and includes over 60 fixes and selected improvements.

On behalf of the Spring Integration community I’d like to announce the second Milestone of Spring Integration Extension for Hazelcast and its artifact is spring-integration-hazelcast.1.0.0.M2, which is available in the Milestone Repository.

The project has been around for some time and there has not been so much activity since the previous Milestone 1 and it only recently gained enough community traction to warrant a release. So, first of all, big thanks to you, the community, for your contributions!

On behalf of the community, I’m pleased to announce the release of Spring LDAP 2.3.1!

This release brings in a new era for Spring Data compatibility. Integration for Spring LDAP and Spring Data has been moved to spring-data-ldap so that it can partake in the Spring Data release train and ensure compatibility with the latest and greatest Spring Data code base.

The release also brings read only attribute support.

Note

We did an immediate release of Spring LDAP 2.3.1 due to an issue with the Spring LDAP 2.3.0 release.
