Release Notes

strimzi/strimzi-kafka-operator (strimzi-kafka-operator)

v0.41.0

Compare Source

• Add support for Apache Kafka 3.6.2
• Provide metrics to monitor certificates expiration as well as modified Strimzi Operators dashboard to include certificate expiration per cluster.
• Add support for JBOD storage in KRaft mode.
  (Note: JBOD support in KRaft mode is considered early-access in Apache Kafka 3.7.x)
• Added support for topic replication factor change to the Unidirectional Topic Operator when Cruise Control integration is enabled.
• The KafkaNodePools feature gate moves to GA stage and is permanently enabled without the possibility to disable it.
  To use the Kafka Node Pool resources, you still need to use the strimzi.io/node-pools: enabled annotation on the Kafka custom resources.
• Added support for configuring the externalIPs field in node port type services.
• The UnidirectionalTopicOperator feature gate moves to GA stage and is permanently enabled without the possibility to disable it.
  If the topics whose names start with strimzi-store-topic and strimzi-topic-operator still exist, you can delete them.
• Don't allow MirrorMaker2 mirrors with target set to something else than the connect cluster.
• Added support for custom SASL config in standalone Topic Operator deployment to support alternate access controllers (i.e. AWS_MSK_IAM)
• Remove Angular dependent plugins from Grafana example dashboard. This makes our dashboard compatible with Grafana 7.4.5 and higher.
• Continue reconciliation after failed manual rolling update using the strimzi.io/manual-rolling-update annotation (when the ContinueReconciliationOnManualRollingUpdateFailure feature gate is enabled).

Changes, deprecations and removals

• The tlsSidecar configuration for the Entity Operator is now deprecated and will be ignored.
• The zookeeperSessionTimeoutSeconds and topicMetadataMaxAttempts configurations for the Entity Topic Operator have been removed and will be ignored.
