On behalf of the team, I’m pleased to announce the availability of the Spring Data releases 2021.0.0-M5, 2020.0.6, and Neumann SR8.

2021.0.0-M5 and 2020.0.6 will be picked up by Spring Boot 2.5.0-M3 and 2.4.4, respectively, in the next few days. If you use Spring Boot 2.3 and want to upgrade to Neumann SR8, set the spring-data-releasetrain.version property to Neumann-SR8.

While the service releases ship with mostly bug fixes and dependency upgrades, the milestone contains a few noteworthy changes:

• Support for the jMolecules' Association type.
• Reactive support for SearchTemplate using Elasticsearch.
• Redis Streams support using the Jedis client.
• Spring Data R2DBC support for Query by Example and Oracle.

We are working towards a release candidate of the 2021.0 development line for the end of March. The release candidate is a good opportunity to give feedback before the actual GA release in mid-April.

To round things off, here are the links to the artifacts, changelogs, and documentation:
