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 <a href="https://downloads.apache.org/kafka/3.8.0/RELEASE_NOTES.html">release notes</a>.</p> + <p>See the <a href="https://kafka.apache.org/documentation.html#upgrade_3_8_0">Upgrading to 3.8.0 from any version 0.8.x through 3.7.x</a> section in the documentation for the list of notable changes and detailed upgrade steps.</p> + <p> + In a previous release, 3.6, + <a href="https://kafka.apache.org/38/documentation.html#tiered_storage">tiered storage</a> was released as early availability feature. + In this release, Tiered Storage now supports clusters configured with multiple log directories (i.e. JBOD feature). This feature still remains as early availability. + </p> + <p> + In the last release, 3.7, <a href="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-858%3A+Handle+JBOD+broker+disk+failure+in+KRaft">KIP-858</a> + was released in early availability. Since this version, JBOD in KRaft is considered production ready. Review Comment: The term used in the 3.7 release was _early access_. Would it be clearer to keep the same term? What do you think of this variation? ```suggestion <a href="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-858%3A+Handle+JBOD+broker+disk+failure+in+KRaft">KIP-858</a> introduced JBOD support in KRaft in the 3.7 release. Since then, limitations have been addressed and it is no longer an early access feature. ``` -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
