Dear Spring community,

On behalf of the Spring Data team and everyone who contributed, it is my pleasure to announce that Spring Data 2021.1.0 has entered its release candidate phase by releasing RC1 today.

  • Fluent Query API for Querydsl and Query-by-Example, allowing for projections, pagination, and consuming results as a Stream.
  • Spring Data JDBC ships with a refined SQL DSL, accepting complex JOIN conditions and subselects.
  • Support for exists and not empty keywords in Elasticsearch repository query methods and support for field exclusion in source.
  • Improve mapping performance for custom queries and paths in Neo4j and support for ReactiveQuerydslPredicateExecutor.
