EEP Support and Lifecycle Status

This page shows the EEPs that are supported for different core releases and the current lifecycle status for each EEP.

Whenever possible, upgrade to the latest EEP supported by your core version so that you can take advantage of bug fixes and usability enhancements. If your installed EEP is In Maintenance or has transitioned to End of Maintenance, see the corresponding upgrade recommendation and support advisory to understand your options.

To learn more about the EEP lifecycle, see Understand the EEP Lifecycle. To view the original release date for any EEP, see Release History for EEPs. For core lifecycle information, see Core Support and Lifecycle Status.

*The version of librdkafka provided by EEP 9.3.1 is not compatible with release 7.8.0. EEP 9.3.1 provides librdkafka version 2.0.2. Release 7.8.0 supports only librdkafka version 0.11.3. For this reason, you cannot use the Installer to install EEP 9.3.1 on a release 7.8.0 cluster. Manually upgrading a 7.8.0 cluster to EEP 9.3.1 is possible and allows the use of EEP 9.3.1 components other than librdkafka on release 7.8.0.
