- Ships with a built-in in-memory Flysystem adapter for process-local XML storage.
- Supports one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-one, and many-to-many patterns.
- Supports AES-256-GCM field-level encryption via
#[Sensitive]with searchable HMAC hashes. - Supports schema evolution (rename/remove fragments) via
