Replace Kafka with the newest
Hi,
What do you think of replacing Kafka to the latest (2.12-2.1.0)? Alternative is to put it aside and choose the needed version in the template or from firecamp-service-cli (I personally don't like this approach).
Meaning, I can do that and send you a PR. Just would like to know your opinion
Thanks @jazzl0ver ! I agree we should just upgrade Kafka to the latest 2.x.
There're two options:
- Wait for @JuniusLuo to merge my PR and release the new Firecamp version. Then you re-create Kafka cluster (no in-place upgrade) from scratch (delete the existing Kafka cluster and launch a new one - both thru firecamp-service-cli tool)
- Build your own docker package for Kafka (check BUILD_YOUR_IMAGES.md), manually update the Kafka ECS Task Definition to point it to your docker package, then re-create the cluster from scratch (see above)
We understand that latest kakfa version 2.1 is available which was committed on 1st feb 19. We built kafka with firecamp cli on 6th Mar 2019 but still its running with old version. please help.
I'm also facing same issue. We created the new kafka cluster today only but still it's taking old kafka version 1.0. I can see two dockerfile 1.0 and 2.1 for kafka catalog. I feel it's picking still default dockerfile 1.0 to build the new image. Can you please help here? How to upgrade to kafka version 2.x ?
Did you update the firecamp-cli tool? You should also install the latest version of Firecamp
just checked - unfortunately, that won't help you. @JuniusLuo has to build docker images and push them to his dockerhub repo. that means the new firecamp release.
