The new Spring Data Neo4j 6.0 is a major release built on the foundation of SDN/RX, which was released earlier this year. It addresses issues with Neo4j-OGM by providing full support for reactive programming, mapping layer compatibility, and improved driver support. The new release introduces a record-oriented mapping approach, supports findByExample methods, and features a Cypher-DSL for custom queries. SDN 6 is designed to be thin client over the driver, allowing users to manage transactions and provide hooks for their own mapping. It also includes configuration support for the Neo4j Java Driver in Spring Boot, better health endpoint information, and potential Micrometer metrics support. The release provides a stable framework for the next few years and encourages feedback from the community.
