Has Hibernate 5 implemented DISCRIMINATOR approach for Multi-tenant data?

Question

According to hibernate 4 doc, the discriminator approach for multi-tenancy data was planned to be implemented on hibernate 5. However hibernate 5 doc is not up to date, it is still telling the same - 'Its support is planned for 5.0'.

So is it implemented or not? Any source telling more about it?

Answer 1

The HHH-6054 issue is still open, so Hibernate doesn't support this feature yet.

Here are the docs referring to this. It is now available in Hibernate 6.

https://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/orm/6.0/userguide/html_single/Hibernate_User_Guide.html#multitenacy-hibernate-TenantId

Here is an example with Spring Boot

Answer 3

The HHH-6054 issue is now resolved. The docs also don't mention that DISCRIMINATOR cannot be used.

The issue is resolved as "Out of date" and not fixed. There are reasons to not remove an enum member even if it's not used. – Kee
