Introducing Apache Kafka® 3.8

作成者 :

We are proud to announce the release of Apache Kafka 3.8.0. This release contains many new features and improvements. This blog post will highlight some of the more prominent features. For a full list of changes, be sure to check the release notes.

See the Upgrading to 3.8.0 from any version 0.8.x through 3.7.x section in the documentation for the list of notable changes and detailed upgrade steps.

In a previous release, 3.6, Tiered Storage was released as early access feature. In this release, Tiered Storage now supports clusters configured with multiple log directories (i.e. JBOD feature). This feature still remains as early access.

In the last release, 3.7, KIP-858 was released in early access. Since this version, JBOD in KRaft is no longer considered an early access feature.

Up until now, only the default compression level was used by Apache Kafka. From this version on, a configuration mechanism to specify compression level is included. See KIP-390 for more details.

In the last release, 3.7, KIP-848 The Next Generation of the Consumer Rebalance Protocol was made available as early access. It is now in preview. This version includes numerous bug fixes and the community is encouraged to test and provide feedback. See the preview release notes for more information.

The configuration value offsets.commit.required.acks is deprecated in this version and it will be removed in Kafka 4.0. See KIP-1041 for more details.

Note: ZooKeeper is marked as deprecated since the 3.5.0 release. ZooKeeper is planned to be removed in Apache Kafka 4.0. For more information, please see the documentation for ZooKeeper Deprecation.

Kafka Streams

  • KIP-813: Shareable State Stores: This KIP adds Shareable State Stores, introducing the ability to use data within a state store across multiple applications without duplicating it on topic level.

  • KIP-924: Customizable task assignment for Streams: This KIP adds a new group of configurable interfaces for plugging custom behavior into the Streams Partition Assignor. This configuration supplants the existing internal task assignor config. Additionally, it limits the scope of these configs to supplying a custom task assignor. This opens the door for future KIPs to add further configs in which a user can set to plug in custom behavior.

  • KIP-989: Improved StateStore Iterator metrics for detecting leaks: This KIP introduces several new metrics to aid users in finding leaked Iterators, as well as identifying the cause of a high number of pinned blocks, or other kinds of memory leaks and performance problems.
