0.6.0
Within this release, we introduced new features like a cluster configuration wizard and integration with the OpenDataDiscovery Platform.
New Features
Cluster configuration wizard
With DYNAMIC_CONFIG_ENABLED property enabled you can add and/or modify your clusters right in UI.
This behavior is enabled by default within our AWS AMI image. Check out the image at AWS Marketplace.
We're planning on implementing different storage providers to make it possible for importing and exporting your config file.
Currently, you can save it if you mount /etc/kafkaui/dynamic_config.yaml file from inside the container to an external volume.
Integration with Open Data Discovery
Leveraging the OpenDataDiscovery Platform, topics and associated Kafka Connect metadata can now be exported for comprehensive monitoring. You'll have visibility into how data platform components interact with Kafka, receive notifications regarding critical schema changes, and more - all to ensure a streamlined connection experience.

Enhancements

BREAKING CHANGES
If you've been using SSL for any component (Clusters, SR, KSQL, KC, etc.), you have to migrate your properties a bit;
Now we supply just one truststore per cluster, keystore stays the same way, one per component:
KAFKA_CLUSTERS_0_SSL_TRUSTSTORELOCATION: /kafka.truststore.jks
KAFKA_CLUSTERS_0_SSL_TRUSTSTOREPASSWORD: "secret"
All other truststore-related properties have been deprecated.
Thanks to everyone who just started and continued to contribute!
In the next release, we'll focus a bit on expanding our RBAC possibilities (support for LDAP and universal OAuth providers) and some Wizard features!
