--- title: Upgrade OpenMetadata slug: /deployment/upgrade --- # Upgrade OpenMetadata ## Releases The OpenMetadata community will be doing feature releases and stable releases. - Feature releases are to upgrade your sandbox or POCs to give feedback to the community and any potential bugs that the community needs to fix. - Stable releases are to upgrade your production environments and share it with your users. ## Backup Metadata Before upgrading your OpenMetadata version we recommend backing up the metadata. The source of truth is stored in the underlying database (MySQL and Postgres supported). You can refer to the following guide for our backup utility: {% inlineCalloutContainer %} {% inlineCallout color="violet-70" icon="luggage" bold="Backup Metadata" href="/deployment/backup-restore-metadata" %} Learn how to back up MySQL data. {% /inlineCallout %} {% /inlineCalloutContainer %} ## Upgrade your installation Once your metadata is safe, follow the required upgrade instructions: {% inlineCalloutContainer %} {% inlineCallout color="violet-70" icon="fit_screen" bold="Upgrade a Kubernetes Deployment" href="/deployment/upgrade/kubernetes" %} Upgrade your Kubernetes installation {% /inlineCallout %} {% inlineCallout color="violet-70" icon="celebration" bold="Upgrade a Docker Deployment" href="/deployment/upgrade/docker" %} Upgrade your Docker installation {% /inlineCallout %} {% inlineCallout color="violet-70" icon="storage" bold="Upgrade a Bare Metal Deployment" href="/deployment/upgrade/bare-metal" %} Upgrade your Bare Metal installation {% /inlineCallout %} {% /inlineCalloutContainer %} ## 1.1 - Stable Release 🎉 OpenMetadata 1.1 is a stable release. Please check the [release notes](/releases/latest-release). If you are upgrading production this is the recommended version to upgrade to. ## Deprecation Notice - The 1.1 Release will be the last one with support for Python 3.7 since it is already [EOL](https://devguide.python.org/versions/). OpenMetadata 1.2 will support Python version 3.8 to 3.10. - In 1.2 we will completely remove the Bots configured with SSO. Only JWT will be available then. Please, upgrade your bots if you haven't done so. Note that the UI already does not allow creating bots with SSO. - 1.1 is the last release that will allow ingesting Impala from the Hive connector. In the next release we will only support the Impala scheme from the Impala Connector. ## Breaking Changes for 1.1 Stable Release ### OpenMetadata Helm Chart Values With `1.1.0` we are moving away from `global.*` helm values under openmetadata helm charts to `openmetadata.config.*`. This change is introduce as helm reserves global chart values across all the helm charts. This conflicted the use of OpenMetadata helm charts along with other helm charts for organizations using common helm values yaml files. For example, with `1.0.X` Application version Releases, helm values would look like below - ```yaml global: ... authorizer: className: "org.openmetadata.service.security.DefaultAuthorizer" containerRequestFilter: "org.openmetadata.service.security.JwtFilter" initialAdmins: - "user1" botPrincipals: - "" principalDomain: "open-metadata.org" authentication: provider: "google" publicKeys: - "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v3/certs" - "http://openmetadata:8585/api/v1/system/config/jwks" authority: "https://accounts.google.com" clientId: "{client id}" callbackUrl: "http://localhost:8585/callback" ... ``` With OpenMetadata Application version `1.1.0` and above, the above config will need to be updated as ```yaml openmetadata: config: authorizer: className: "org.openmetadata.service.security.DefaultAuthorizer" containerRequestFilter: "org.openmetadata.service.security.JwtFilter" initialAdmins: - "user1" - "user2" botPrincipals: - "" principalDomain: "open-metadata.org" authentication: provider: "google" publicKeys: - "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v3/certs" - "http://openmetadata:8585/api/v1/system/config/jwks" authority: "https://accounts.google.com" clientId: "{client id}" callbackUrl: "http://localhost:8585/callback" ``` A quick and easy way to update the config is to use [yq](https://mikefarah.gitbook.io/yq/) utility to manipulate YAML files. ```bash yq -i -e '{"openmetadata": {"config": .global}}' openmetadata.values.yml ``` The above command will update `global.*` with `openmetadata.config.*` yaml config. Please note, the above command is only recommended for users with custom helm values file explicit for OpenMetadata Helm Charts. For more information, visit the official helm docs for [global chart values](https://helm.sh/docs/chart_template_guide/subcharts_and_globals/#global-chart-values). ### Elasticsearch and OpenSearch We now support ES version up to 7.16. However, this means that we need to handle the internals a bit differently for Elasticsearch and OpenSearch. In the server configuration, we added the following key: ```yaml elasticsearch: searchType: ${SEARCH_TYPE:- "elasticsearch"} # or opensearch ``` If you use Elasticsearch there's nothing to do. However, if you use OpenSearch, you will need to pass the new parameter as `opensearch`. ### Pipeline Service Client Configuration If reusing an old YAML configuration file, make sure to add the following inside `pipelineServiceClientConfiguration`: ```yaml pipelineServiceClientConfiguration: # ... # Secrets Manager Loader: specify to the Ingestion Framework how to load the SM credentials from its env # Supported: noop, airflow, env secretsManagerLoader: ${PIPELINE_SERVICE_CLIENT_SECRETS_MANAGER_LOADER:-"noop"} healthCheckInterval: ${PIPELINE_SERVICE_CLIENT_HEALTH_CHECK_INTERVAL:-300} ``` ### Secrets Manager YAML config If you are using the Secrets Manager and running ingestions via the CLI or Airflow, your workflow config looked as follows: ```yaml workflowConfig: openMetadataServerConfig: secretsManagerProvider: secretsManagerCredentials: awsAccessKeyId: awsSecretAccessKey: awsRegion: hostPort: authProvider: ``` We are removing the `secretsManagerCredentials` key as a whole, so instead you'll need to configure: ```yaml workflowConfig: openMetadataServerConfig: secretsManagerProvider: aws secretsManagerLoader: airflow # if running on Airflow, otherwise `env` hostPort: authProvider: ``` You can find further details on this configuration [here](/deployment/secrets-manager/supported-implementations/aws-secrets-manager). ## Service Connection Changes ### MySQL and Postgres Connection Adding IAM role support for their auth requires a slight change on their JSON Schemas: #### From ```yaml ... serviceConnection: config: Mysql # or Postgres password: Password ``` #### To If we want to use the basic authentication: ```yaml ... serviceConnection: config: Mysql # or Postgres authType: password: Password ``` Or if we want to use the IAM auth: ```yaml ... serviceConnection: config: Mysql # or Postgres authType: awsConfig: awsAccessKeyId: ... wsSecretAccessKey: ... awsRegion: ... ``` ### Looker Connection Now support GitHub and BitBucket as repositories for LookML models. #### From ```yaml ... serviceConnection: config: type: Looker clientId: ... clientSecret: ... hostPort: ... githubCredentials: repositoryOwner: ... repositoryName: ... token: ... ``` #### To ```yaml ... serviceConnection: config: type: Looker clientId: ... clientSecret: ... hostPort: ... gitCredentials: type: GitHub # or BitBucket repositoryOwner: ... repositoryName: ... token: ... ``` ### From GCS to GCP We are renaming the `gcsConfig` to `gcpConfig` to properly define their role as generic Google Cloud configurations. This impacts BigQuery, Datalake and any other source where you are directly passing the GCP credentials to connect to. #### From ```yaml ... credentials: gcsConfig: ... ``` #### To ```yaml ... credentials: gcpConfig: ... ``` ### Other changes - Glue now supports custom database names via `databaseName`. - Snowflake supports the `clientSessionKeepAlive` parameter to keep the session open for long processes. - Kafka and Redpanda now have the `saslMechanism` based on enum values `["PLAIN", "GSSAPI", "SCRAM-SHA-256", "SCRAM-SHA-512", "OAUTHBEARER"]`. - OpenMetadata Server Docker Image now installs the OpenMetadata Libraries under `/opt/openmetadata` directory - Bumped up ElasticSearch version for Docker and Kubernetes OpenMetadata Dependencies Helm Chart to `7.16.3`
