+=== Using immutable class instances for persistence
+
+In Kotlin, it is very convenient and a best practice to declare read-only properties within
+the primary constructor, as in the following example:
+
+[source,kotlin]
+----
+class Person(val name: String, val age: Int)
+----
+
+But some persistence technologies like JPA require a default constructor, preventing this
+kind of design. Fortunately, there is now a workaround for this
+https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32038177/kotlin-with-jpa-default-constructor-hell["default constructor hell"]
+since Kotlin provides a https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/compiler-plugins.html#kotlin-jpa-compiler-plugin[kotlin-jpa]
+plugin which generates synthetic no-arg constructor for classes annotated with JPA annotations.
+
+If you need to leverage this kind of mechanism for other persistence technologies, you can
+configure https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/compiler-plugins.html#how-to-use-no-arg-plugin[kotlin-noarg]
+plugin.

+[NOTE]
+====
+As of Kay release train, Spring Data supports Kotlin immutable class instances and should
+not require `kotlin-noarg` plugin if the underlying persistence solution allows it
+(for example with MongoDB).

 === Injecting dependencies
 
 Our recommendation is to try and favor constructor injection with `val` read-only (and non-nullable when possible)
