Is Strimzi's operator for Apache Kafka still in beta version? [closed]
I can say that Strimzi is really production-ready. There are already some users using it in production and you can see some of them on the website (https://strimzi.io/) and all of them in the ADOPTERS file here https://github.com/strimzi/strimzi-kafka-operator/blob/master/ADOPTERS.md
Sometimes happens, even in the Kubernetes land, that an API version is still beta while really stable.We have an actual plan to finally move to CRD v1 and you can read about this in this Strimzi proposal got accepted and to be developed.
https://github.com/strimzi/proposals/blob/master/009-crd-v1-roadmap.md
Right now we are at 0.20.0 and we plan to have a kind of gate release on January 2021 and a final move to v1 in April.
Anyway, again, there is no need to wait for that time I can confirm that Strimzi is production ready.
