Projects

Mihai Costin developed a library for using the Hibernate second level cache mechanism with Memcached. If your application already uses Memcached, it makes sense to store the second level cache entries in the same distributed caching system. This library is hosted on GitHub and available on Maven Central, so you can easily grab it and give it a try.

Time to upgrade

We have released two versions of Hibernate ORM: 5.0.10 and 5.2.2.
