Changes, deprecations and removals

  • Strimzi API versions v1alpha1 and v1beta1 were removed from all Strimzi custom resources apart from KafkaTopic and KafkaUser (use v1beta2 versions instead)
  • The following annotations have been removed and cannot be used anymore:
    • cluster.operator.strimzi.io/delete-claim (used internally only - replaced by strimzi.io/delete-claim)
    • operator.strimzi.io/generation (used internally only - replaced by strimzi.io/generation)
    • operator.strimzi.io/delete-pod-and-pvc (use strimzi.io/delete-pod-and-pvc instead)
    • operator.strimzi.io/manual-rolling-update (use strimzi.io/manual-rolling-update instead)
  • When the class field is configured in the configuration section of an Ingress-type listener, Strimzi will not automatically set the deprecated kubernetes.io/ingress.class annotation anymore. In case you still need this annotation, you can set it manually in the listener configuration using the annotations field or in the .spec.kafka.template section.
  • The .spec.kafkaExporter.template.service section in the Kafka custom resource has been deprecated and will be removed in the next API version (the service itself was removed several releases ago).

0.22.0

  • Add v1beta2 version for all resources. v1beta2 removes all deprecated fields.
  • Add annotations that enable the operator to restart Kafka Connect connectors or tasks. The annotations can be applied to the KafkaConnector and the KafkaMirrorMaker2 custom resources.
  • Add additional configuration options for the Kaniko executor used by the Kafka Connect Build on Kubernetes

  • Bump Cruise Control to v2.5.37 for Kafka 2.7 support. Note this new version of Cruise Control uses Log4j 2 and is supported by dynamic logging configuration (where logging properties are defined in a ConfigMap). However, existing Log4j configurations must be updated to Log4j 2 configurations.
  • Support pausing reconciliation of CR with annotation strimzi.io/pause-reconciliation

Changes, deprecations and removals

  • In the past, when no Ingress class was specified in the Ingress-type listener in the Kafka custom resource, the kubernetes.io/ingress.class annotation was automatically set to nginx. Because of the support for the new IngressClass resource and the new ingressClassName field in the Ingress resource, the default value will not be set anymore. Please use the class field in .spec.kafka.listeners[].configuration to specify the class name.
  • The KafkaConnectS2I custom resource is deprecated and will be removed in the future. You can use the new KafkaConnect build feature instead.
  • Removed support for Helm2 charts as that version is now unsupported. There is no longer the need for separate helm2 and helm3 binaries, only helm (version 3) is required.

  type: external
  name: my-config-map
    • to
    logging:
  type: external
  valueFrom:
    configMapKeyRef:
      name: my-config-map
      key: my-key
  • Existing Cruise Control logging configurations must be updated from Log4j syntax to Log4j 2 syntax.
    • For existing inline configurations, replace the cruisecontrol.root.logger property with rootLogger.level.

0.20.0

Note: This is the last version of Strimzi that will support Kubernetes 1.11 and higher. Future versions will drop support for Kubernetes 1.11-1.15 and support only Kubernetes 1.16 and higher.

  • Add support for Kafka 2.5.1 and 2.6.0. Remove support for 2.4.0 and 2.4.1

    • Permission changes through Keycloak Authorization Services are now detected by Kafka Brokers

Deprecations and removals

Redesign of the .spec.kafka.listeners section

The .spec.kafka.listeners section of the Kafka CRD has been redesigned to allow configuring more different listeners. The old listeners object which allowed only configuration of oneplain, one tls, and one external listener is now deprecated and will be removed in the future. It is replaced with an array allowing configuration of multiple different listeners:

listeners:
  - name: local
    port: 9092
    type: internal
    tls: true
  - name: external1
    port: 9093
    type: loadbalancer
    tls: true
  - name: external2
    port: 9094
    type: nodeport
    tls: true

This change includes some other changes:

  • The tls field is now required.
  • The former overrides section is now merged with the configuration section.
  • The dnsAnnotations field has been renamed to annotations since we found out it has wider use.
  • Configuration of loadBalancerSourceRanges and externalTrafficPolicy has been moved into listener configuration. Its use in the template section is now deprecated.
  • For type: internal listeners, you can now use the flag useServiceDnsDomain to define whether they should use the fully qualified DNS names including the cluster service suffix (usually .cluster.local). This option defaults to false.
  • All listeners now support configuring the advertised hostname and port.
  • preferredAddressType has been removed to preferredNodePortAddressType.

To convert the old format into the new format with backwards compatibility, you should use following names and types:

  • For the old plain listener, use the name plain, port 9092 and type internal.
  • For the old tls listener, use the name tls, port 9093 and type internal.
  • For the old external listener, use the name external, port 9094.

For example the following old configuration:

listeners:
  plain:
    # ...
  tls: 
    # ...
  external:
    type: loadbalancer 
    # ...

Will look like this in the new format:

listeners:
  - name: plain
    port: 9092
    type: internal
    tls: false
  - name: tls
    port: 9093
    type: internal
    tls: true
  - name: external
    port: 9094
    type: loadbalancer
    tls: true

Removal of monitoring port on Kafka and ZooKeeper related services

The PodMonitor resource is now used instead of the ServiceMonitor for scraping metrics from Kafka, ZooKeeper, Kafka Connect and so on. For this reason, we have removed the monitoring port tcp-prometheus (9404) on all the services where it is declared (Kafka bootstrap, ZooKeeper client and so on). It was already deprecated in the previous 0.19.0 release. Together with it we have also removed the Prometheus annotations from the services. If you want to add them, you can use the templates. See here https://strimzi.io/docs/operators/master/using.html#assembly-customizing-kubernetes-resources-str for more details about templates usage. Finally, the Kafka Exporter service was has been removed because it was used just for the monitoring port.

Deprecation of Kafka TLS sidecar configuration

Since the Kafka TLS sidecar has been removed, the related configuration options in the Kafka custom resource are now deprecated:

  • .spec.kafka.tlsSidecar
  • .spec.kafka.template.tlsSidecar

0.19.0

  • Add support for authorization using Open Policy Agent
  • Add support for scale subresource to make scaling of following resources easier:
    • KafkaConnect
    • KafkaConnectS2I
    • KafkaBridge
    • KafkaMirrorMaker
    • KafkaMirrorMaker2
    • KafkaConnector
  • Remove deprecated Kafka.spec.topicOperator classes and deployment logic
  • Use Java 11 as the Java runtime
  • Removed the need to manually create Cruise Control metrics topics if topic auto creation is disabled.
  • Migration to Helm 3
  • Refactored the format of the KafkaRebalance resource's status. The state of the rebalance is now displayed in the associated Condition's type field rather than the status field. This was done so that the information would display correctly in various Kubernetes tools.
  • Added performance tuning options to the KafkaRebalance CR and the ability to define a regular expression that will exclude matching topics from a rebalance optimization proposal.
  • Use Strimzi Kafka Bridge 0.18.0
  • Make it possible to configure labels and annotations for secrets created by the User Operator
  • Strimzi Kafka Bridge metrics integration:
    • enable/disable metrics in the KafkaBridge custom resource
    • new Grafana dashboard for the bridge metrics
  • Support dynamically changeable logging in the Entity Operator and Kafka Bridge
  • Extended the Grafana example dashboard for Kafka Connect to provide more relevant information

Deprecations and removals

Deprecation of Helm v2 chart

The Helm v2 support will end soon. Bug fixing should stop on August 13th 2020 and security fixes on November 13th. See https://helm.sh/blog/covid-19-extending-helm-v2-bug-fixes/ for more details.

In sync with that, the Helm v2 chart of Strimzi Cluster Operator is now deprecated and will be removed in the future as Helm v2 support ends. Since Strimzi 0.19.0, we have a new chart for Helm v3 which can be used instead.

Removal of v1alpha1 versions of several custom resources

In Strimzi 0.12.0, the v1alpha1 versions of the following resources have been deprecated and replaced by v1beta1:

  • Kafka
  • KafkaConnect
  • KafkaConnectS2I
  • KafkaMirrorMaker
  • KafkaTopic
  • KafkaUser

In the next release, the v1alpha1 versions of these resources will be removed. Please follow the guide for upgrading the resources: https://strimzi.io/docs/operators/latest/full/deploying.html#assembly-upgrade-resources-str.

Removal deprecated cadvisor metric labels

The pod_name and container_name labels provided on the cadvisor metrics are now just pod and container starting from Kubernetes 1.16. We removed the old ones from the Prometheus scraping configuration/alerts and on the Kafka and ZooKeeper dashboard as well. It means that the charts related to memory and CPU usage are not going to work on Kuvbernetes version previous 1.14. For more information on what is changed: strimzi#3312

Deprecation of monitoring port on Kafka and ZooKeeper related services

The PodMonitor resource is now used instead of the ServiceMonitor for scraping metrics from Kafka, ZooKeeper, Kafka Connect and so on. For this reason, we are deprecating the monitoring port tcp-prometheus (9404) on all the services where it is declared (Kafka bootstrap, ZooKeeper client and so on). This port will be removed in the next release. Together with it we will also remove the Prometheus annotation from the service.
