Abstract

Everybody know Hibernate right? Perhaps don’t. JPA is so popular these days that many people think that Hibernate is just a JPA implementation. Wrong! Hibernate is a very powerful tool and is constantly innovating. Have you checked Hibernate recently? There are a lot of new features that you probably don’t know, but you should!

Join us on this session to see which are the new features provided on Hibernate 5 that you didn’t know, including: new Bootstrap API, Java 8 support, Generics and AutoCloseable, Bytecode Enhancement for lazy fields and collections. And wouldn’t be great if we could integrate ElasticSearch with Hibernate so that all changes are in sync? And what about using your domain objects in ElasticSearch queries? We got it all covered!
