Record type a new feature in Java 14.

 The records are new-type declarations in Java 14. It simplifies and reduces boilerplate code that simply acts as "data carrier" i.e. POJO or domain class.

POJO or Domain Class:

public class Employee {

private String name;

private Integer age;

public Employee(String name, Integer age) {

this.name = name;

this.age = age;

}

public String getName() {

return name;

}

public void setName(String name) {

this.name = name;

}

public Integer getAge() {

return age;

}

public void setAge(Integer age) {

this.age = age;

}

}

With record type:

record Employee (String name, Integer age) {}

Record is responsible to generate setters, getters, medhods, constructor, equals(), hashCode() and toString() implicitly.
