8.0.5

Release 8.0.5

This release updates dependencies to their latest patch version.

Additional notes

The build process now adds a new asset restheart-with-deps.zip (and its tar.gz version) that contains the thin restheart-core.jar plus a lib/ folder with all Maven dependencies.
This allows to use the restheart-core.jar as a proper Maven compile-time dependency instead of the fat JAR built with the shade plugin (which was not very useful as a compile-time dependency, as it brings all of its transitive dependencies with it).
See issue #517 for a complete description.

Big News: Virtual Threads Model
The highlight of this major update is the transition to the virtual threads threading model, providing improved performance and efficiency. This new threading model brings significant enhancements, including optimized buffer management and virtual thread compatibility across core operations. Here are the major changes:

1. Thread Model Upgrade:

   • Virtual Threads: Migrated to virtual threads as the primary threading model, replacing the old worker-threads configuration.
   • Custom Pools: Implemented a ThreadAwareByteBufferPool to delegate buffers based on thread types, optimizing performance for virtual threads (37d0b99).
   • Carrier Threads Configuration: Added an option to specify the number of carrier threads for virtual threads (3ccdecc).

2. Performance Improvements:

   • Heap Buffers: Virtual working threads now exclusively use heap buffers, which are faster (8a450aa).
   • Buffer Pools: Replaced Undertow's ByteBufferPool with the NotPoolingByteBufferPool for virtual thread compatibility (1f70da4).
   • Direct Buffers: Defaulted the configuration option for direct buffers to true for enhanced performance (181050b).
   • Lazy Request Loading: Introduced lazy-loading of request content to minimize unnecessary resource usage (6eae3d0).

3. Bug Fixes and Refactoring:

   • MongoDB Error Handling: Improved error handling for specific MongoDB errors (06638ec, fb6c019).
   • Native Image Compatibility: Fixed native image builds to correctly handle plugins and prevent conflicts due to class loading (ff3c01c, ee3c387, f551d2b).

4. Authentication Enhancements:

   • Cookie Authentication: Added cookie-based authentication with support of both JWT and RGT cookies (85d6771).
   • JWT Mechanism: Improved the JWT authentication mechanism to accommodate both rolesClaim and fixedRoles (070054c).

5. Other Improvements:

   • Java Upgrade Upgraded Java 21 LTS
   • GraalVM Upgrade Upgraded to latest version of GraalVM for Java 21
   • Configuration: Updated and refined various configuration options, including removing deprecated features and updating Java and Docker configurations (6cd3866, 4254c28, 373bfa4).
   • Plugins: Refined the PluginsScanner to support native builds and maintain class loader consistency (ee3c387, f551d2b).

7.7.10
