Having fixed several issues and tasks since the previous milestone, it’s time to publish our third milestone towards Elasticsearch integration: Hibernate Search version 5.6.0.Alpha3 is now available!
Migration from Hibernate Search 5.5.x
Even if you’re not interested in the new Elasticsearch support, you might want to try out this version as it benefits from Apache Lucene 5.5.0.
If you ignore the new features and want to simply use Lucene in embedded mode the migration is easy, and as usual we are maintaining notes regarding relevant API changes in the Migration Guide to Hibernate Search 5.6.
