Research task (Technical Documentation):
I am migrating a project built on Spring Boot that uses hibernate version 5.3.22, a Spring Boot version 2.3.2, and Java 17, to a new repository that does not currently use Hibernate, and is built in Java 21 and Spring Boot version 2.7.14. What should I keep in mind when performing this migration in terms of versioning and what challenges might arise?

Evaluation rubric:
criterion: The response explicitly states that Spring Boot 2.7.x (including 2.7.14) is not compatible with Java 21.
weight: 4
axis: Explicit Criteria

criterion: Response suggets that in order to incorporate Hibernate, a version upgrade from Spring Boot 2.7.14 to 3.x is recommended.
weight: 4
axis: Explicit Criteria

criterion: The response notes that Spring Boot 2.7.14 uses Hibernate Core version 5.6.x by default.
weight: 3
axis: Implicit Criteria

criterion: The response warns that Hibernate 5.3.22 should be upgraded at a minimum to Hibernate 5.6.x to match Spring Boot 2.7.14’s managed version or further to 6.x if moving to Spring Boot 3.x.
