Software Artifact

AutoMQ is a cloud-native Kafka distribution, entirely developed in Java and supports most Java platforms. For best performance, it is recommended to deploy on a Linux operating system, preferably on amd64 or arm64 architectures. For additional deployment guidance, please see Cluster Deployment on Linux▸

Version Number

AutoMQ follows semantic versioning, structured as {major version}.{minor version}.{patch version}, where

  • the major version increases with significant upgrades or incompatible changes

  • the minor version increases with new features while maintaining backward compatibility

  • the patch version is applied for bug fixes.

Each AutoMQ version is compatible with a specific version of Apache Kafka. Check the version records for historical versions and detailed version mapping to choose the suitable AutoMQ version.
