Summary: Need clarity on the bridge release version of kafka without zookeeper in the eco system - KIP500 Key: KAFKA-13578 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-13578 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Bug Reporter: kaushik srinivas We see from the KIP-500 [https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-500%3A+Replace+ZooKeeper+with+a+Self-Managed+Metadata+Quorum] Below statement needs some clarity, *We will be able to upgrade from any version of Kafka to this bridge release, and from the bridge release to a post-ZK release. When upgrading from an earlier release to a post-ZK release, the upgrade must be done in two steps: first, you must upgrade to the bridge release, and then you must upgrade to the post-ZK release.* What apache kafka version is referred to as bridge release in this context ? can apache kafka 3.0.0 be considered bridge release even though it is not production ready to run without zookeeper ? -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.1#820001)
