Spring Data Neo4j 2.0.0.M1 Released

Releases | Michael Hunger | October 21, 2011 | ...

Dear Spring Community,

We are pleased to announce that the first milestone release (2.0.0.M1) of the new Spring Data Neo4j major version 2.0 is now available!

In the last few weeks the engineers have been busy transforming the existing library under a new name to make it fit for its presentation
at Spring One 2GX next week.

A major internal refactoring split the framework into several submodules, each addressing a different concern.

  • spring-data-neo4j: Neo4jTemplate for easy, copying object-graph-mapping, and Spring Data Repositories using persistence entity meta information
  • spring-data-neo4j-aspects: transparent object-graph-mapping using AspectJ
  • spring-data-neo4j-cross-store: AspectJ based cross-store-persistence between JPA and Neo4j
  • spring-data-neo4j-rest: transparent access of a remote Neo4j REST-Server

As part of the refactoring, the source repository was also renamed and re-organized. The previously separated examples and the tutorial project are now included directly in the same github project

Spring Data JDBC Extensions with Oracle Database Support 1.0.0.RC1 Released

Releases | Thomas Risberg | October 18, 2011 | ...

Dear Spring Community, We are pleased to announce that the release candidate (1.0.0.RC1) of the Spring Data JDBC Extensions 1.0 project with Oracle Database support is now available!

The new Spring Data JDBC Extensions project was created to provide additional support for vendor specific JDBC extensions as well as new approaches to working with JDBC like QueryDSL. The bulk of the support is made up of code ported from the SpringSource project "Advanced Pack for Oracle Database" that was available for support subscription customers. We are now making this code available to all Spring users and any new developments will be made in the Spring Data JDBC Extensions project.

Downloads | JavaDocs | Reference Documentation | Changelog

To learn more about the project, visit the Spring Data JDBC Extensions Homepage.

The improvements in Spring Data JDBC Extensions 1.0.0.RC1 include:

  • Added documentation chapter for QueryDSL SQL module
  • Added OSGi manifests
  • Fixed slf4j/log4j and other dependencies

I'd like to thank Andrei Stefan for the JPetStore re-write using the QueryDSL support and SQLFire. It provides a good example for using the QueryDslJdbcTemplate in a project - see https://github.com/SpringSource/spring-sqlfire-samples.

Looking forward to your feedback on the forum or in the issue tracker.

Using Cloud Foundry Services with Spring: Part 1 - The Basics

Engineering | Ramnivas Laddad | October 13, 2011 | ...

Services offered in Cloud Foundry make writing efficient and effective applications possible. Developers can now choose just the right kind of services without worrying about operating those services. For example, a portion of an application can choose Postgres for the parts where transactional access is crucial, MongoDB where interacting with data as a collection of documents makes sense, Redis where key-value is the right abstraction, and RabbitMQ where messaging helps create effective architecture. In this four-part blog series, we will explore how Spring applications can use Cloud Foundry…
