PROFILE
Moad Elfatihi
Moad El Fatihi contributed to the hibernate/hibernate-orm repository by delivering targeted upgrades and modernization across database dialects and core infrastructure. Over five months, he raised minimum supported versions for CockroachDB, MariaDB, and SQL Server, aligning dialects with current releases and reducing maintenance overhead. He modernized the codebase to Java 17, migrated from Joda-Time to the Java Time API, and improved test reliability by upgrading Docker-based CI environments. Using Java, SQL, and Docker, Moad focused on code organization, dependency management, and refactoring, demonstrating depth in backend development while ensuring long-term maintainability and compatibility for evolving database technologies.

Sep 1, 2025Month: 2025-09 — Hibernate ORM modernization to Java 17 and Time API migration. Delivered modernized code using enhanced switch expressions, removed the Joda-Time dependency, and migrated tests to java.time.LocalDate. These changes reduce technical debt, improve maintainability, and position Hibernate for Java 17+ compatibility across dialects. No major bugs were fixed this month; the focus was on strategic modernization with clear business value: smoother upgrade path for customers and easier long-term maintenance.

Apr 1, 2025April 2025: Delivered Hibernate Dialect Compatibility and Modularity Enhancements for hibernate-orm. Key changes include raising the minimum supported SQL Server version to 2016, unconditionally registering JSON functions to simplify dialect logic, and refactoring by moving legacy LimitHandler classes from the core dialect package into a new community dialects module to improve modularity and maintainability. These changes reduce core dialect complexity, enable easier extension to additional dialects, and lay groundwork for broader dialect support in future releases.

Mar 1, 2025March 2025 focused on stabilizing the testing pipeline for Hibernate ORM by upgrading the Docker-based test environment to MySQL 9.2 and implementing a regression workaround. The work minimized flaky tests and ensured faster, more reliable feedback loops for release readiness, while aligning test entities with the new MySQL version. These changes improve CI stability and prepare the suite for future MySQL compatibility.
