Kafka 3.7.0 Release Announcement</a>
+ </h2>
+ February 2024 - Stanislav Kozlovski (<a
href="https://twitter.com/BdKozlovski";>@BdKozlovski</a>)
+ <p>We are proud to announce the release of Apache Kafka 3.7.0.
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/3.7.0/RELEASE_NOTES.html";>release
notes</a>.</p>
+ <p>See the <a
href="https://kafka.apache.org/36/documentation.html#upgrade_3_7_0";>Upgrading
to 3.7.0 from any version 0.8.x through 3.6.x</a> section in the documentation
for the list of notable changes and detailed upgrade steps.</p>
+ <p>
+ In the last release, 3.6,
+ <a
href="https://kafka.apache.org/documentation/#kraft_zk_migration";>the ability
to migrate Kafka clusters from a ZooKeeper metadata system</a>
+ to a KRaft metadata system was ready for usage in
production environments with one caveat -- JBOD was not yet available for KRaft
clusters.
+ In this release, we are shipping an early access release
of JBOD in KRaft. (See <a
href="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-858%3A+Handle+JBOD+broker+disk+failure+in+KRaft";>KIP-858</a>
for details)
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Additionally, client APIs released prior to Apache Kafka
2.1 are now marked deprecated in 3.7 and will be removed in Apache Kafka 4.0.
See <a
href="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-896%3A+Remove+old+client+protocol+API+versions+in+Kafka+4.0";>KIP-896</a>
for details and RPC versions that are now deprecated.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Java 11 support for the Kafka broker is also marked
deprecated in 3.7, and is planned to be removed in Kafka 4.0. See <a
href="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=284789510";>KIP-1013</a>
for more details
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ <i>Note: ZooKeeper is marked as deprecated since the 3.5.0
release. ZooKeeper is planned to be removed in Apache Kafka 4.0. For more
information, please see the documentation for <a
href="https://kafka.apache.org/documentation/#zk_depr";>ZooKeeper
Deprecation</a></i>.

Access) KIP-858 Handle JBOD broker disk failure in KRaft</a>:
+ </b><br>This update closes the gap on one of the last
major missing features in KRaft by adding JBOD support in KRaft-based clusters.
Review Comment:
great point! modified it to `<li>Supporting JBOD configurations with
multiple storage directories in production environments. Note that an Early
Access release is supported in 3.7 as per <a
href="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-858%3A+Handle+JBOD+broker+disk+failure+in+KRaft";>KIP-858</a></li>`
and will update it once we have some clarity regarding
