In Relation To

While we are still working on Hibernate Search 6 to get it ready for an Alpha, things are relatively quiet on the Search 5 side. However, we did not forget about it: we just published Hibernate Search version 5.10.3.Final, the third maintenance release of Hibernate Search 5.10. This release upgrades Hibernate Search to Hibernate ORM 5.3.3.Final, and adds a few minor improvements.

We just published Hibernate Search version 5.10.2.Final, the second maintenance release of Hibernate Search 5.10. This release adds previously missing handling of minimumShouldMatch constraints in boolean junctions.

We just published bugfix releases for the branches we actively maintain:

We just published 5.10.0.Final, the first stable release in the 5.10 branch. This release brings an upgrade of the ORM integration to ORM 5.3 and JPA 2.2, an integration to DI frameworks through Hibernate ORM 5.3, an upgrade to WildFly 12 and JGroups 4, and JPMS automatic module names.

We just published 5.10.0.CR1, the first candidate release for the 5.10 branch. This release mainly includes an upgrade to Hibernate ORM 5.3.0.CR2, but it also adds a few bugfixes and improvements: see below!

We just published 5.10.0.Beta2, the second beta release for the 5.10 branch. This release mainly includes an upgrade to WildFly 12 for the JBoss modules, but it also adds a few bugfixes and improvements: see below!

We just published 5.10.0.Beta1, the first beta release for the 5.10 branch. The main goal of this release is to target Hibernate ORM 5.3, but it also adds DI framework integration and a TikaBridge improvement: see below!

Hibernate ORM 5.3 has not been officially released yet, and is still just a candidate release, so this might be a good time to try to upgrade your application to ORM 5.3 + Search 5.10 and report any problems!

We just published 5.9.0.Final, the first stable release in the 5.9 branch. This release brings a brand-new JSR-352 integration for mass indexing, WildFly feature packs, and better integration to modular environments.

We just published 5.9.0.CR1, with bugfixes and improvements over 5.9.0.Beta1.

Version 5.9.0.CR1 is the last opportunity for the community to test it and report bugs before the release.

Originally started as a Google Summer of Code project by Mincong Huang, Hibernate Search 5.9 will feature integration with JSR 352, "Batch Applications for the Java Platform". This integration provides a new implementation of mass indexing (indexing a high volume of entities) as a JSR 352 job.

Yesterday we released 5.9.0.Beta1 so you can try it out already!
