Outlook, What’s next?

This past year has been packed full of tons of changes. This makes the eighth and likely final stable release for Debezium 1.9 as we begin to turn our attention fully to Debezium 2.0 moving forward.

With Debezium 2.0 released on October 17th, just last week, the team is now hard at work addressing your feedback, so keep that coming. We’re also actively working on the next installment of Debezium, 2.1, which will be released later this year. Be sure to keep an eye on our road map in the coming week as we intend to debut what is planned for Debezium 2.1 and what’s to come in 2023!

Until then, stay safe!

About Debezium

Debezium is an open source distributed platform that turns your existing databases into event streams, so applications can see and respond almost instantly to each committed row-level change in the databases. Debezium is built on top of Kafka and provides Kafka Connect compatible connectors that monitor specific database management systems. Debezium records the history of data changes in Kafka logs, so your application can be stopped and restarted at any time and can easily consume all of the events it missed while it was not running, ensuring that all events are processed correctly and completely. Debezium is open source under the Apache License, Version 2.0.
