Migration Guide
Eager to migrate your existing applications? Here is our migration guide for 1.5.
What’s new?
Fast-jar packaging format
The fast-jar packaging format is introduced as an alternative to the default jar packaging format. The main goal of this new format is to bring faster startup times.
It is very likely that future versions will adopt this format as the default so your feedback is highly welcome on real life applications.
You can test it by adding the following lines to your application.properties:
quarkus.package.type=fast-jaror passing -Dquarkus.package.type=fast-jar when you build.
New extensions
Picocli
1.4 introduced command mode and we now have a Picocli extension relying on it to simplify the creation of rich command line applications.
Eager to learn more about it? Read the Picocli guide.
gRPC
gRPC support in Quarkus was a popular request: we now have a set of gRPC extensions that allows to write clients and servers:
MicroProfile GraphQL
Speaking of popular requests, Quarkus 1.5 introduces a GraphQL extension implementing Eclipse MicroProfile GraphQL.
How to create and consume GraphQL services is explained in details in the MicroProfile GraphQL guide.
Amazon Services
We had Amazon DynamoDB support for quite a while, this has been generalized to support more Amazon services:
-
Amazon DynamoDB - NoSQL database
-
Amazon KMS - Key Management Service
-
Amazon S3 - Object storage service
-
Amazon SES - Email service
-
Amazon SNS - Notification service
-
Amazon SQS - Queue service
Hibernate ORM REST Data with Panache
The purpose of the with Panache extensions is to simplify a set of features and bring back developer joy.
In Quarkus 1.5, we introduce Hibernate ORM REST Data with Panache which simplifies the creation of CRUD REST APIs based on JAX-RS and Hibernate ORM.
Discover this feature with this new dedicated guide.
