Which to pick: Cayenne 4.2 vs. 5.0?
Hi guys!
I'm about to be rid of a legacy DB that's been keeping my most important application stuck on a heavily modified Cayenne 4.1 stack. So, finally looking into joining modernity and upgrading Cayenne (yay!).
I see there's a lot of stuff happening in 5.0 at the moment and I'd like to take my "non business-critical" stuff there so I can partake in the fun.
But then there's the more serious (read: paying customer) software. Seeing as how v4.2 is still in the RC stage, with 5.0 receiving active development, would you recommend migrating "real apps" to 4.2 now—or just not bothering, holding out and moving directly to 5.0? Is anyone using the 4.2 RC in production yet?
Cheers,

Thanks to you all for the feedback! Hearing 4.2 is seeing pretty widespread production use was exactly what I needed, moving there :).

Exactly. There's lots of good stuff planned for 5.0, but it is not developed yet. So 4.2 is the best choice right now. It is both modern and stable. I also use it in prod everywhere.
4.2 is about to go GA once we figure out how fix some Modeler issues caused by the latest MacOS.

The main feature of 5.0 at this point is the removal of deprecated features
(like the ROP platform), so either one is a good choice I'd say. But I'd go
with 4.2.

I am using 4.2 RC in production. No problems.
