Bintray, one of the services our team currently uses to distribute packages, is shutting down on May 1st, 2021.

This post explains what alternative services are available for the RabbitMQ community today or will be before the shutdown date.

No new releases will be published to Bintray going forward. Those who do not switch from Bintray before May 1st will see their deployments begin failing. We highly recommend making migration off of Bintray both an important and urgent task.

TL;DR

  • Erlang 24 will ship in May and it offers significant performance gains to RabbitMQ users
  • Supporting Erlang 24 and 22 at the same time is not feasible, so in early May 2021, Erlang 22 support will be dropped
  • If you run on Erlang 22, upgrade to 23.2 today: it should be a drop-in replacement
  • Users of the RabbitMQ Kubernetes Operator, the Docker community image and modern releases of VMware Tanzu RabbitMQ for VMs are not affected as those projects all use Erlang 23 today

A Webinar on Quorum Queues

Before we start with RabbitMQ project and community updates from April, we have a webinar to announce! Jack Vanlightly, a RabbitMQ core team member, will present on High Availability and Data Safety in Messaging on June 11th, 2020.

In this webinar, Jack Vanlightly will explain quorum queues, a new replicated queue type in RabbitMQ. Quorum queues were introduced in RabbitMQ 3.8 with a focus on data safety and efficient, predictable recovery from node failures. Jack will cover and contrast the design of quorum and classic mirrored queues.

After this webinar, you'll understand:

  • Why quorum queues offer better data safety than mirrored queues
  • How and why server resource usage changes when switching to quorum queues from mirrored queues
  • Some best practices when using quorum queues
