[[improved-getting-started-experience]]
=== Improved Getting Started experience
In this release, the getting started experience was improved in many ways:
* Samples are now packaged by feature and are provided in two configuration styles: XML and Java configuration
* A new https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-batch#two-minutes-tutorial[Two minutes tutorial] was added to the README
* The https://spring.io/guides/gs/batch-processing[Getting Started Guide] was updated to the latest and greatest Spring Batch and Spring Boot versions
* The https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-batch/blob/main/ISSUE_REPORTING.md[Issue Reporting Guide] was updated with detailed instructions and project templates to help you easily report issues
[[mongodb-job-repository]]
=== MongoDB Job Repository (Experimental)
This feature introduces new implementations of `JobRepository` and `JobExplorer` backed by MongoDB. This long-awaited feature is now available
as experimental and marks the introduction of the first NoSQL meta-data store for Spring Batch.
Please refer to the https://github.com/spring-projects-experimental/spring-batch-experimental#mongodb-job-repository[Spring Batch Experimental] repository for more details about this feature.
[[composite-item-reader]]
=== Composite Item Reader (Experimental)
This feature introduces a composite `ItemReader` implementation. Similar to the `CompositeItemProcessor` and `CompositeItemWriter`, the idea is to delegate reading to a list of item readers in order.
This is useful when there is a requirement to read data having the same format from different sources (files, databases, etc).
Please refer to the https://github.com/spring-projects-experimental/spring-batch-experimental#composite-item-reader[Spring Batch Experimental] repository for more details about this feature.
[[new-chunk-oriented-step-implementation]]
=== New Chunk-Oriented Step implementation (Experimental)
This is not a new feature, but rather a new implementation of the chunk-oriented processing model.
The goal is to address the reported issues with the current implementation and to provide a new base for the upcoming re-designed concurrency model.
Please refer to the https://github.com/spring-projects-experimental/spring-batch-experimental#new-chunk-oriented-step-implementation[Spring Batch Experimental] repository for more details about this new implementation.
