Changes, deprecations and removals

  If you are using the storage overrides, you should migrate to KafkaNodePool resources and use multiple node pools with a different storage class each.
• Strimzi 0.43.0 (and any of its patch releases) is the last Strimzi version with support for Kubernetes 1.23 and 1.24.
  From Strimzi 0.44.0 on, we will support only Kubernetes 1.25 and newer.

v0.42.0

Compare Source

• Add support for Kafka 3.7.1
• The UseKRaft feature gate moves to GA stage and is permanently enabled without the possibility to disable it.
  To use KRaft (ZooKeeper-less Apache Kafka), you still need to use the strimzi.io/kraft: enabled annotation on the Kafka custom resources or migrate from an existing ZooKeeper-based cluster.
• Update the base image used by Strimzi containers from UBI8 to UBI9
• Add support for filename patterns when configuring trusted certificates
• Enhance KafkaBridge resource with consumer inactivity timeout and HTTP consumer/producer enablement.
• Add support for feature gates to User and Topic Operators
• Add support for setting publishNotReadyAddresses on services for listener types other than internal.
• Update HTTP bridge to latest 0.29.0 release
• Uncommented and enabled (by default) KRaft-related metrics in the kafka-metrics.yaml example file.
• Added support for configuring the quotas plugin with type strimzi or kafka in the Kafka custom resource.
  The Strimzi Quotas plugin version was updated to 0.3.1.

Changes, deprecations and removals

• The reconciliationIntervalSeconds configuration for the Topic and User Operators is deprecated, and will be removed when upgrading schemas to v1.
  Use reconciliationIntervalMs converting the value to milliseconds.
• Usage of Strimzi Quotas plugin version 0.2.0 is not supported, the plugin was updated to 0.3.1 and changed significantly.
  Additionally, from Strimzi 0.42.0 the plugin should be configured in .spec.kafka.quotas section - the configuration of the plugin inside .spec.kafka.config is ignored and should be removed.
