Let’s Set the Records Straight

Records in Java provide several improvements over writing classes when working predominantly with data. However, we have to understand a few nuances to make good use of them. This presentation will start with a short refresher about records and then dive into details surrounding the construction and life cycle of Records. Knowing these will help you to make better use of Records and avoid surprises.

100% agreed that Java record perfectly works as a tuple. We are already using this approach in our production code.

Pragmatically, records aren't even close to lombok. Once they get pattern matching it'll be different, but right now records are mostly a subset of lombok.
