Kafka 3.6.0 Release Announcement</a>
+ </h2>
+ 15 Sep 2023 - Satish Duggana (<a
href="https://twitter.com/0xeed";>@SatishDuggana</a>)
+ <p>We are proud to announce the release of Apache Kafka 3.6.0.
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 <a
href="https://downloads.apache.org/kafka/3.6.0/RELEASE_NOTES.html";>release

to 3.6.0 from any version 0.8.x through 3.5.x</a> section in the documentation
for the list of notable changes and detailed upgrade steps.</p>
+ <p>
+ The ability to migrate Kafka clusters from a ZooKeeper
metadata system to a KRaft metadata system is
+ now considered stable and suitable for production
environments. See the ZooKeeper to KRaft migration
+ <a
href="https://kafka.apache.org/documentation/#kraft_zk_migration";>operations
documentation</a> for
+ details. Note that support for JBOD is still not available
for KRaft clusters, therefor clusters
+ utilizing JBOD cannot be migrated. See <a

+ <p>Support for Delegation Tokens in KRaft (<a
href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-15219";>KAFKA-15219</a>) was
completed in 3.6, further reducing the gap of features between ZooKeeper-based
Kafka clusters and KRaft. Migration of delegation tokens from ZooKeeper to
KRaft is also included in 3.6.</p>
+ <p><a
href="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-405%3A+Kafka+Tiered+Storage";>Tiered
Storage<a> is an early access feature. It is currently only suitable for

Access Notes</a> for more details.</p>

+ <p><i>Note: ZooKeeper is marked as deprecated since 3.5.0
release. ZooKeeper is planned to be removed in Apache Kafka 4.0. (Cf <a
