A beginner’s guide to Spring Data Envers
Introduction In this article, we are going to investigate the Spring Data Envers project and see how to get the best out of it. Hibernate Envers is a Hibernate ORM extension that allows us to track entity changes with almost no changes required on the application part. Just like Envers plugs into Hibernate ORM in order to build an audit log for entity changes, the Spring Data Envers project plugs into Spring Data JPA to provide audit logging capabilities to JPA Repositories.
How to integrate Jakarta Data with Spring and Hibernate
Introduction In this article, we are going to see how we can integrate Jakarta Data with Spring and Hibernate. Jakarta Data is a new Jakarta EE specification that provides a common API for building data Repositories and data access objects. If you are familiar with Spring Data JPA, you will see that Jakarta Data is very much inspired by this Spring API.
How to map Java Enum to custom values with JPA and Hibernate
Introduction In this article, we are going to see how we can map Java Enum to custom values when using JPA and Hibernate. While Hibernate provides several options to save Enum values, having the option to customize this mechanism is even better, as it will allow you to better deal with legacy applications or use cases that require you to reorder the Java Enum values.
Hibernate ON CONFLICT DO clause
Introduction In this article, we are going to see how the Hibernate ON CONFLICT DO clause works, and how we can use it to execute an SQL UPSERT statement in a portable way.
Overriding FetchType.EAGER with fetchgraph
