Chapter 4. Deprecated features

AMQ Streams 1.7 introduces build configuration to the KafkaConnect resource, as described in Chapter 1, Features. With the introduction of build configuration to the KafkaConnect resource, AMQ Streams can now automatically build a container image with the connector plugins you require for your data connections.

As a result, support for Kafka Connect with Source-to-Image (S2I) is deprecated.

To prepare for this change, you can migrate Kafka Connect S2I instances to Kafka Connect instances.

See Migrating from Kafka Connect with S2I to Kafka Connect

Metrics configuration is now specified as a ConfigMap for Kafka components. Previously, the spec.metrics property was used.

To update the configuration, and enable Prometheus metrics export, a new ConfigMap must be created that matches the configuration for the .spec.metrics property. The .spec.metricsConfig property is used to specify the ConfigMap, as described in Chapter 1, Features.
