Changes to the Bitnami catalog, etcd and Apache Apisix community

[arnauddeman]

Hi,

We use Apache APISIX (community) and our deployment is based on this docker-compose example: https://github.com/apache/apisix-docker/blob/master/example/docker-compose.yml

Recently, Bitnami announced a policy change for their containers: bitnami/containers#83267

As the docker compose example uses a Bitnami etcd image, could you please advise on:

• Which etcd image and tags you recommend for production with APISIX (e.g., etcd-io official image)?
• The supported etcd versions for recent APISIX releases.
• Any migration guidance from Bitnami etcd.

Thanks!

We made these changes as a temporary fix for our development environment. According to the Bitnami issue , this legacy catalog will receive no further updates or support and should only be used for temporary migration purposes. We are not in production yet, but we’re wondering what the options are for using APISIX in production. Is a Bitnami subscription required?

1. APISIX + ETCD
2. APISIX + Ingress Controller (Standalone Mode) + Without ETCD: https://github.com/apache/apisix-ingress-controller/blob/master/docs/en/latest/upgrade-guide.md and https://github.com/apache/apisix-ingress-controller/blob/master/docs/en/latest/install.md#install-apisix-and-apisix-ingress-controller-standalone-api-driven-mode
