We've currently got dependency management for hazelcast-hibernate52 and hazelcast-hibernate53 which seems a bit odd given that we require Hibernate 6. I'm not sure if hazelcast-hibernate53 supports the jakarta.persistence JPA API or if it touches the JPA API at all. We should verify the situation and update/remove things as needed.

Boot doesn't depend on Hazelcast Hibernate. We only have dependency management for it as it used to be part of Hazelcast itself. It was then split out into a separate project with its own release cycle but we kept our dependency management for it. With hindsight, I think this was a mistake as Boot doesn't depend on Hazelcast Hibernate. As such, we should remove our dependency management.

It's been a while since I last used Hazelcast, but I agree with what's proposed here.
I suggested the same thing few years ago, as using org.hibernate.orm:hibernate-jcache is IMO better option for the job, compared to Hazelcast's Hibernate modules. See https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot/issues/15624#issuecomment-453065069.

Thanks, @vpavic. I've mentioned using hibernate-jcache instead in the release notes.

After taking another look, that should probably be org.hibernate.orm:hibernate-jcache these days, as Hibernate ORM has relocated to a new group id for 6.x.

I've updated that. Thanks again.
