Below you find the list of versions that are supported for each product. New versions get added every release, old ones are deprecated or removed. Read the Release notes for the Stackable Data Platform for each platform version to see which product versions are available.

Read about Product image selection to learn how to use a particular version in your Stacklet, as well as how you can use custom images or a custom registry.

Apache Airflow

  • 3.3.1

  • 3.2.2 (deprecated)

  • 3.0.6 (LTS)

  • 2.9.3 (deprecated)

Apache Druid

Stackable’s support for Apache Druid is deprecated and is planned for removal from the SDP in SDP 27.11. The last SDP release to include Apache Druid is planned to be 27.7. Apache Druid itself is not affected; only its inclusion in the SDP is being discontinued.

  • 37.0.0 (LTS)

Apache HBase

  • 2.6.4 (DEPRECATED)

  • 2.6.6 (LTS)

Apache HDFS

  • 3.5.0 (LTS)

  • 3.4.3

  • 3.4.2 (deprecated)

Apache Hive

  • 4.2.1 (LTS)

  • 4.2.0 (deprecated)

  • 4.0.0 (deprecated)

  • 3.1.3 (deprecated)

Hive 4 compatibility

Hive 4.0.1 removed two metastore Thrift methods that clients built against Hive 2.3 still call. Apache Spark bundles such a client, and Apache Iceberg’s HiveCatalog uses it, so Spark jobs writing Iceberg tables fail against a metastore that no longer serves them.

Every Hive version shipped by Stackable serves both methods. 3.1.3 and 4.0.0 predate the removal. The images for 4.2.0 and later restore it. See Thrift API compatibility for what that means in practice.

Upgrading

Upgrading Hive, for example from 4.0.0 to 4.2.1, is not easily reversible. Test the new version before upgrading your production workloads, and back up the metastore database before starting an upgrade.

Hive 3.1.3 and 4.0.0 are deprecated and both are scheduled for removal in SDP 27.3.
