Forest Hill, MD, Aug. 01, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Apache Software Foundation (ASF), the all-volunteer developers, stewards, and incubators of more than 350 Open Source projects and initiatives, announced today the immediate availability of Apache® Polygene™ Java Edition v.3.0, the Composite Oriented Programming platform leveraging Java.

Apache Polygene is a Java application framework used for persistence-centric applications. Polygene delivers a comprehensive solution for creating business applications, with dependency injection, aspect oriented programming, persistence system, metrics and serialization, in a modular fashion with dozens of extensions.

"Apache Polygene's slogan --'New Energy for Java - Classes are Dead, Long Live Interfaces' -- truly captures what Apache Polygene is really about: designing software efficiently," said Niclas Hedhman, original project co-founder and member of the Apache Polygene Project Management Committee. "Too many frameworks add a lot of boilerplate and configuration that is simply not needed. It just slows everyone down, and everyone is looking for alternatives to JPA (Java Persistence API). Polygene can deliver that, and much more. Simply put, Polygene is application framework done right."

Apache Polygene 3.0 is a major release on Java 8, and features new serialization subsystem, persistence system additions of Apache Cassandra and Apache Geode entity stores, full Java Scripting API support, and a focus for delivery of REST API applications and microservices. Polygene 3.0's many improvements make it easier to get started and is anticipated to be a critical release for years to come. Further details are available in the Apache Polygene 3.0 technical fact sheet https://blogs.apache.org/polygene/date/20170730

"Version 3.0 has been more work than any previous release," said Paul Merlin, Vice President of and Release Manager of Apache Polygene. "We have rewritten large sections of the Polygene Runtime to leverage Java 8 platform, and decided to minimize user impact by making all other changes that may break compatibility with previous versions at the same time."

"In our new business venture, I am again happy to use Polygene to simplify the application modeling," said Jiri Jetmar, member of the Apache Polygene Project Management Committee and longtime Polygene user. "Many features are crucial, but being able to not use JPA and have a better persistence model is probably the most important one for us. There are very few alternatives to JPA, and Polygene is simply the best."

Polygene originated in 2007 as Qi4j, and, in 2015, became the first project to enter the ASF as a pTLP (provisional Top-Level Project) without entering the Apache Incubator. The project celebrated its 10 year anniversary with its 9th supported release, and is planning for 3 additional releases in the next 12 months.

"We are already working on Polygene 3.1 with a code generator to get started more quickly," added Hedhman. "Also in the works is an enterprise-friendly SQL entity store, to remove the last objections of using Polygene in enterprise projects."

"Moving forward, we are determined to preserve compatibility," added Merlin. "We invite interested individuals to download Polygene and join the discussion on future features and enhancements."
