0.40.0-rc1
1b5ce12

⚠️ Important: From Strimzi 0.40 on, we support only Kubernetes 1.23 and newer. Kubernetes versions 1.21 and 1.22 are no longer supported.

Main changes since 0.39.0

This release contains the following new features and improvements:

  • Add support for Apache Kafka 3.7.0. Remove support for Apache Kafka 3.5.0, 3.5.1, and 3.5.2.
  • The UseKRaft feature gate moves to beta stage and is enabled by default. If needed, UseKRaft can be disabled in the feature gates configuration in the Cluster Operator.
  • Add support for ZooKeeper to KRaft migration by enabling the users to move from using ZooKeeper to store metadata to KRaft.
  • Add support for moving from dedicated controller-only KRaft nodes to mixed KRaft nodes
  • Added support for Kafka Exporter offset.show-all parameter
  • Prevent removal of the broker process role from KRaft mixed-nodes that have assigned partition-replicas
  • Improve broker scale-down prevention to continue in reconciliation when scale-down cannot be executed
  • Added support for Tiered Storage by enabling the configuration of custom storage plugins through the Kafka custom resource.
  • Update HTTP bridge to the latest 0.28.0 release

All changes can be found under the 0.40.0 milestone.

Watch out also for some notable changes, deprecations, and removals:

  • From Strimzi 0.40.0 on, we support only Kubernetes 1.23 and newer. Kubernetes 1.21 and 1.22 are not supported anymore.
  • #9508 fixes the Strimzi CRDs and their definitions of labels and annotations. This change brings our CRDs in-sync with the Kubernetes APIs. After this fix, the label and annotation definitions in our CRDs (for example in the template sections) cannot contain integer values anymore and have to always use string values. If your custom resources use an integer value, for example: 
    template:
  apiService:
    metadata:
      annotations:
        discovery.myapigateway.io/port: 8080
    You might get an error similar to this when applying the resource: 
    spec.template.apiService.metadata.annotations.discovery.myapigateway.io/port: Invalid value: "integer": spec.template.apiService.metadata.annotations.discovery.myapigateway.io/port in body must be of type string: "integer"
    To fix the issue, just use a string value instead of an integer: 
    template:
  apiService:
    metadata:
      annotations:
        discovery.myapigateway.io/port: "8080"
  • Support for the JmxTrans component is now completely removed. If you are upgrading from Strimzi 0.34 or earlier and have JmxTrans enabled in .spec.jmxTrans of the Kafka custom resource, you should disable it before the upgrade or delete it manually after the upgrade is complete.
  • The api module was refactored and classes were moved to new packages.
  • Strimzi Drain Cleaner 1.1.0 (included in the Strimzi 0.40.0 installation files) changes the way it handles Kubernetes eviction requests. It denies them instead of allowing them. This new behavior does not require the PodDisruptionBudget to be set to maxUnavailable: 0. We expect this to improve the compatibility with various tools used for scaling Kubernetes clusters such as Karpenter. If you observe any problems with your toolchain or just want to stick with the previous behavior, you can use the STRIMZI_DENY_EVICTION environment variable and set it to false to switch back to the old (legacy) mode.

Maven artifacts

To test the Maven artifacts that are part of this release, use the staging repository by including the following in your pom.xml:

Upgrading from Strimzi 0.39.0

See the documentation for upgrade instructions.

Upgrading from Strimzi 0.22 or earlier

Direct upgrade from Strimzi 0.22 or earlier is not supported anymore! You have to upgrade first to one of the previous versions of Strimzi. You will also need to convert the CRD resources. For more details, see the documentation.
