ClickCease Endless Lifecycle Support for Apache Kafka - TuxCare

Apache Kafka 3.2.3 and 3.3.2 reached end of life in 2024, and the current 3.4.1 version is set to do the same in March 2025. End-of-life Apache Kafka versions no longer receive security updates.

Continuing to use these unsupported versions puts you at risk of security vulnerabilities.

Upgrading between Apache Kafka versions can be complex, with potential breaking changes, compatibility issues, and performance variations.

With TuxCare’s ELS, you can avoid the risks of a rushed migration while ensuring your Kafka deployment remains fully patched and protected for as long as you need.
