Chapter 3. Service Registry 2.5 release notes
Chapter 3. Service Registry 2.5 release notes Service Registry is a data store for standard event schemas and API designs, and is based on the Apicurio Registry open source community project. Note Red Hat build of Apicurio Registry is now available as part of Red Hat Application Foundations. Red Hat build of Apicurio Registry 2.x and Red Hat Integration Service Registry 2.x are functionally identical. For more information, see Red Hat Application Foundations . You can use Service Registry to manage and share the structure of your data using a web console, REST API, Maven plug-in, or Java client. For example, client applications can dynamically push or pull the latest schema updates to or from Service Registry without needing to redeploy. You can also create optional rules to govern how Service Registry content evolves over time. These rules include validation of content, integrity of artifact references, and backwards or forwards compatibility of schema or API versions. 3.1. Service Registry installation options You can install Service Registry on OpenShift with either of the following data storage options: PostgreSQL database Red Hat AMQ Streams For more details, see Installing and deploying Service Registry on OpenShift . 3.2. Service Registry supported platforms Service Registry 2.5 supports the following core platforms: Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform: 4.15, 4.14, 4.13, 4.12 Red Hat OpenShift Service on AWS: 4.13 Microsoft Azure Red Hat OpenShift: 4.13 PostgreSQL: 15, 14, 13, 12 Red Hat AMQ Streams: 2.6, 2.5, 2.2 OpenJDK: 17, 11 For more details, see the following article: Red Hat Integration Service Registry Supported Configurations . 3.2.1. Supported integration with other products Service Registry 2.5 also supports integration with the following products: Red Hat Single Sign-On (RH-SSO) 7.6 Red Hat build of Debezium 2.3 3.2.2. Operator metadata versions For details on the corresponding Service Registry Operator metadata versions used to install and deploy Service Registry, see the following article: Red Hat Integration - Service Registry Operator metadata versions . 3.3. Service Registry new features Service Registry 2.5 includes the following new features: Service Registry core new features Upgrade to Quarkus 3.x The Service Registry server runtime has been upgraded from Quarkus 2.x to Quarkus 3.x. This upgrade provides improved security, performance, and maintenance. For more details, see https://quarkus.io/quarkus3/ . Service Registry 2.5 is built on Quarkus 3.2. Avro SerDes improvements Support for generation of schemas with null fields when using Apache Avro serializers/deserializers. For more details, see Registry-3862 . Schema cache fault tolerance Added the option to use an existing schema cache entry instead of throwing an error if schema cache loading fails. For more details, see Registry-3807 . Dereference artifact content There are some cases where returning artifact content with referenced content inline might be helpful. For these cases, the Core Registry API v2 adds support for the dereference query parameter in certain operations. For more details, see the Apicurio Registry v2 core REST API documentation . This support is currently implemented only for Avro and Protobuf artifacts when the dereference parameter is specified in the API operation. This parameter is not supported for any other artifact types. For more details, see Registry-2865 . Note For Protobuf artifacts, dereferencing content is supported only when all of the schemas belong to the same package. Service Registry Maven plug-in improvements Add the option to skip the register goal in the Maven plug-in. For more details, see Registry-3817 . Automatic detection of references in the Maven plug-in by using the autoRef option in the pom.xml file. For more details, see Registry-3439 . This is a Technology Preview feature. Important Technology Preview features are not supported with Red Hat production service level agreements (SLAs) and might not be functionally complete. Red Hat does not recommend using them in production. These features provide early access to upcoming product features, enabling customers to test functionality and provide feedback during the development process. For more information about the support scope of Red Hat Technology Preview features, see Technology Preview Features Support Scope . Service Registry Operator new features Improved support for SQL data source configuration Service Registry Operator supports configuring an SQL data source by using environment variables as an alternative to spec.configuration.sql.dataSource fields. You can now provide SQL credentials using Kubernetes secrets instead of plaintext in the ApicurioRegistry custom resource. For more details, see https://access.redhat.com/solutions/7059053 . Service Registry Operator has been improved in this version to better support this use case. You can now use both the spec.configuration.sql.dataSource and spec.configuration.env fields to define parts of the configuration. For example, the following configuration is now valid: apiVersion: registry.apicur.io/v1 kind: ApicurioRegistry metadata: name: myregistry spec: configuration: persistence: sql sql: dataSource: url: "jdbc:postgresql://..." userName: "postgres-user" env: - name: REGISTRY_DATASOURCE_PASSWORD valueFrom: secretKeyRef: name: postgres-secret key: password The Operator also detects this type of configuration and applies it immediately without additional user intervention. Service Registry user documentation and examples The documentation library has been updated with the new features available in version 2.5: Installing and deploying Service Registry on OpenShift Migrating Service Registry deployments Service Registry User Guide Apicurio Registry v2 core REST API documentation The open source demonstration applications have also been updated: https://github.com/Apicurio/apicurio-registry-examples 3.4. Service Registry deprecated features Service Registry core deprecated features Confluent Schema Registry API version 6 (compatibility API) : Service Registry currently supports two versions of the Confluent Schema Registry API on separate endpoints: version 6 and version 7. The v6 API endpoint is deprecated, and will be removed in a future release. Ensure that you replace all references to the v6 API endpoint with references to the v7 API endpoint. Service Registry Core API version 1 : Service Registry support for the original version 1 of the Service Registry Core API is now deprecated. This v1 legacy API will be removed in the major release. Dynamic log level configuration : The /admin/loggers and /admin/loggers/{logger} API endpoints are now deprecated in the v2 Service Registry Core API. These endpoints will be removed in a future release. Registry V1 export utility : Service Registry support for the command-line export utility is now deprecated. The export tool, which is used to export data from Service Registry 1.x into a format that can be imported into 2.x, will no longer be released or maintained. All customers should have already upgraded from 1.x to 2.x. Service Registry Operator deprecated features JAVA_OPTIONS environment variable : The JAVA_OPTIONS environment variable is no longer the preferred way to configure Java options for Service Registry. You can use the JAVA_OPTS_APPEND environment variable instead. The JAVA_OPTS environment variable is also available, which replaces the default content of Java options. However, it is best to avoid using JAVA_OPTS because it might interfere with some Service Registry Operator functionality. Setting environment variables by editing the Deployment resource : In versions, you could set environment variables for Service Registry by directly editing its Deployment resource, which was supported by the Service Registry Operator. Now that you can manage environment variables by using the spec.configuration.env field in the ApicurioRegistry CRD file, the procedure is deprecated and the Operator support for it will be removed. Ensure that you use the spec.configuration.env field to set all environment variables that are not set by the Operator. Retention of environment variables for features that are not enabled : The Service Registry Operator sets environment variables to enable and configure various features, such as Salted Challenge Response Authentication Mechanism (SCRAM) security when using Kafka storage. When such features are disabled, the Operator currently retains the associated environment variables, which can cause problems. Retention of such environment variables is deprecated, and the Operator support for it will be removed. Ensure that your deployment does not rely on the retention of such environment variables. Environment variable precedence : The Service Registry Operator might attempt to set an environment variable that is already explicitly specified in the spec.configuration.env field. If an environment variable has a conflicting value, the value set by the Service Registry Operator takes precedence by default. This behavior will change in the future, to enable users to overwrite most environment variables set by the Operator. Ensure that your deployment does not rely on the original precedence behavior. 3.5. Upgrading and migrating Service Registry deployments You can upgrade the Service Registry server automatically from Service Registry 2.x to Service Registry 2.5 on OpenShift. There is no automatic upgrade from Service Registry 1.x to Service Registry 2.x, and a migration process is required. 3.5.1. Updating 2.x client dependencies It is not mandatory to update client dependencies for this release. Existing Service Registry 2.x client applications continue to work with Service Registry 2.5. However, before the release of Service Registry, you must update all of your client dependencies to use the latest version of Service Registry. Client dependencies include dependencies for the Service Registry Kafka serializers/deserializers (SerDes), Maven plug-in, and Java client applications. For example, to update the Maven dependencies for a Java client application, specify the version in your pom.xml file as follows: <dependency> <groupId>io.apicurio</groupId> <artifactId>apicurio-registry-client</artifactId> <version>2.5.10.Final-redhat-00001</version> </dependency> For more details, see Legacy REST API date formats enabled by default . 3.5.2. Upgrading from Service Registry 2.x on OpenShift You can upgrade from Service Registry 2.x on OpenShift 4.11 to Service Registry 2.5 on OpenShift 4.12 or later. You must upgrade both your Service Registry and your OpenShift versions, and upgrade OpenShift one minor version at a time. Prerequisites You already have Service Registry 2.x installed on OpenShift 4.11 or later. You have backed up your existing Service Registry storage data in your Kafka topic or PostgreSQL database. For more details, see Installing and deploying Service Registry on OpenShift . Important In production environments on OpenShift, to help ensure that storage is backed up before upgrading, it is best to set the Operator update approval strategy for Service Registry to manual instead of automatic. Procedure In the OpenShift Container Platform web console, click Administration and then Cluster Settings . Click the pencil icon to the Channel field, and select the minor candidate version (for example, change from stable-4.11 to candidate-4.12 ). Click Save and then Update , and wait until the upgrade is complete. If the OpenShift version is less than 4.13, repeat steps 2 and 3, and select candidate-4.13 or later. Click Operators > Installed Operators > Red Hat Integration - Service Registry . Ensure that the Update channel is set to 2.x . If the Update approval is set to Automatic , the upgrade should be approved and installed immediately after the 2.x channel is set. If the Update approval is set to Manual , click Install . Wait until the Operator is deployed and the Service Registry pod is deployed. Verify that your Service Registry system is up and running. Additional resources For more details on how to set the Operator update channel in the OpenShift Container Platform web console, see Changing the update channel for an Operator . 3.5.3. Migrating from Service Registry 1.1 on OpenShift For details on migrating from Service Registry 1.1 to Service Registry 2.x, see Migrating Service Registry deployments . 3.6.

Service Registry known issues The following known issues apply in Service Registry 2.5: Service Registry core known issues Registry-3413 - Legacy REST API date formats enabled by default For maximum compatibility and for easier upgrades from older versions of Service Registry, the date format used in the Service Registry REST API is not compliant with OpenAPI standards. This is because of a bug in older versions. Before the release of Service Registry, you must upgrade all of your client applications to use the latest Service Registry client version. The release will fix the date format bug, which will result in older clients no longer being compatible with the REST API. To update your REST API to be OpenAPI compliant, you can fix the date format bug in this version of Service Registry as follows: Update all of your client applications to version 2.5.10.Final-redhat-00001 , as described in Updating 2.x client dependencies . Set the following environment variable to the value shown: REGISTRY_APIS_V2_DATE_FORMAT=yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss'Z' IPT-814 - Service Registry logout feature incompatible with RH-SSO 7.6 In RH-SSO 7.6, the redirect_uri parameter used with the logout endpoint is deprecated. For more details, see the RH-SSO 7.6 Upgrading Guide . Because of this deprecation, when Service Registry is secured by using the RH-SSO Operator, clicking the Logout button displays the Invalid parameter: redirect_uri error. For a workaround, see https://access.redhat.com/solutions/6980926 . IPT-701 - CVE-2022-23221 H2 allows loading custom classes from remote servers through JNDI When Service Registry data is stored in AMQ Streams, the H2 database console allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by using the JDBC URL. Service Registry is not vulnerable by default and a malicious configuration change is required. Service Registry Operator known issues Operator-42 - Autogeneration of OpenShift route might use wrong base host value If multiple routerCanonicalHostname values are specified, autogeneration of the Service Registry OpenShift route might use a wrong base host value.
