production ready persistence providers for jpa 2.1 - java-ee-7

Is there a Production ready Persistence provider for JPA 2.1? I see that Hibernate is only going to support it only from 4.3 onwards and its only in a beta stage.

Im using eclipselink 2.5.1. http://www.eclipse.org/eclipselink/. Seems to work stable.

what are the real time benefits of migrating to service bus 12c from 11g for an enterprise application?

What are the real time benefits of migrating to service bus 12c from 11g for an enterprise application? We are currently using soa suite 11g. One thing which I know is it incorporates the development of services in jdeveloper itself instead of using eclipse.
Also, approximately how much time is required for the migration?
Some of the benefit that I have found is the native support for REST Services and the use of JS for REST end to end services in OSB 12.2.1 and SOA 12.2.1.
The migration time is highly dependant on the number of services you have in both OSB and SOA, but it must be quite simple.

Connection Resiliency in Entity Framework Core

I am working on an Asp.Net Core 1.0 + EF Core 1.0 (RC2 targeting net46) project which will be deployed in Azure and relying on SQL Azure for data.
I know that EF Core 1.0 doesn't plan to support Connection Resiliency for v1.0
Is it possible to support connection resiliency through some other means?
.Net 4.5.1 added built-in support for connection resiliency in ADO.NET. Since EF is built on top of ADO.NET does it mean that it's already included?
There are a number of improvements in that area in .net 4,6,1, but true Command execution resiliency is still on th EF Core roadmap

Is it posible to have 2 Web Services on the same machine that use DNX and dotnet CLI respectively

I have a machine with installed DNX (beta-8) and running ASP.NET 5-beta8 API Service. And what I need is to publish another one API service, that have been created using ASP.NET Core 1.0.
So I'm worried if I do not break the current old Service if I install .NET Core Tooling on this machine.
Unfortunately, I don't have an option to update old API Service to ASP.NET Core 1.0
Yes, you should be able to run dnx and dotnet side by side but it's not an officially supported scenario. The only known issue is that you cannot have VS tooling that supports both. However, if you build/publish from console, it should work.
That being said, dnx is deprecated and it will not updated in the future.

Is symfony 1.2 compatible with PHP 5.4?
We have an application which was built on symfony 1.2 and is currently running on a server with PHP 5.3.29 and MySQL 5.1.73.
We now have a need to upgrade the server to PHP 5.4. Could someone please confirm Is symfony 1.2 compatible with PHP 5.4?
Thanks.

As of the OFficial Documenttion of Symfony
http://symfony.com/blog/symfony-1-2-is-already-available
symfony 1.2 requires PHP 5.2. It works best with PHP 5.2.4 or above. You might need to upgrade your PHP installation to take full advantage of all features and benefit from better performance.
So, The upgrade of Server won't affect the functionality of your application.

What is the Status of Microsoft Sync Framework 2.1

I am looking for a sync framework to use for syncing sql server express and sqlite databases with Sql Azure. We have been using Sync Framework 2.1 for a while with sql server express and Sql Azure with good success, but Sync Framework 2.1 is getting quite old. Does anyone know if Sync Framework is dead? If so, does anyone know of a good alternative.
the last update was the Sync Framework Toolkit (supposedly v4.0) that was released a couple of years ago...
afaik, no update (a 2.2 release was on put hold) and it's still supported (there's has been no official announcement that it will be discontinued)
