Request to Upgrade OrientDB to Version 3.2.36

[cschockaert]

Hello,

Would you consider upgrading Mesh to use the latest OrientDB version 3.2.36?

I encountered a bug that has been fixed by the OrientDB team in this version. I successfully tested Mesh 2.1.10 with OrientDB 3.2.36, and it works without issues.

I believe the upgrade should be straightforward — updating the BOM POM file and running the full suite of JUnit tests should be sufficient.

Thank you!

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out and for testing Mesh with OrientDB 3.2.36.

We want to inform you that we are now providing Mesh SQL as an open-source solution, using the MariaDB connector. With this shift, we are no longer planning updates for OrientDB. However, if a commercial request is made, we can evaluate an update as part of a dedicated project.

Let us know if you have any further questions.
