How We Built a CockroachDB Dialect for Hibernate

CockroachDB has officially released its dialect for Hibernate, a popular ORM tool. This development follows extensive work to improve compatibility with existing ORMs and support for five major ORMs including Hibernate. The new CockroachDB dialect offers first-class support for Hibernate, improving the developer experience by introducing CockroachDB-specific semantics. It also provides automatic handling for missing BLOB storage and Identity column support. This release is part of a larger effort to make CockroachDB scalable and robust while maintaining simplicity in use.
