Understanding the release cycle
Starting with the Nautilus release (14.2.0), there is a new stable release cycle every year, targeting March 1st. Each stable release series will receive a name (e.g., ‘Mimic’) and a major release number (e.g., 13 for Mimic because ‘M’ is the 13th letter of the alphabet).
Releases are named after a species of cephalopod (usually the common name, since the latin names are harder to remember or pronounce).
Version numbers have three components, x.y.z. x identifies the release cycle (e.g., 13 for Mimic). y identifies the release type:
x.0.z - development releases (for early testers and the brave at heart)
x.1.z - release candidates (for test clusters, brave users)
x.2.z - stable/bugfix releases (for users)
This versioning convention started with the 9.y.z Infernalis cycle. Prior to that, versions looked with 0.y for development releases and 0.y.z for stable series.
Development releases (x.0.z)
Each development release (x.0.z) freezes the master development branch and applies integration and upgrade tests before it is released. Once released, there is no effort to backport fixes; developer focus is on the next development release which is usually only a few weeks away.
Development release every 8 to 12 weeks
Intended for testing, not production deployments
Full integration testing
Upgrade testing from the last stable release(s)
Every effort is made to allow offline upgrades from previous development releases (meaning you can stop all daemons, upgrade, and restart). No attempt is made to support online rolling upgrades between development releases. This facilitates deployment of development releases on non-production test clusters without repopulating them with data.
Release candidates (x.1.z)
There is a feature release roughly eight (8) weeks prior to the planned initial stable release, after which focus shifts to stabilization and bug fixes only.
Release candidate release every 1-2 weeks
Intended for final testing and validation of the upcoming stable release
Stable releases (x.2.z)
Once the initial stable release is made (x.2.0), there are semi-regular bug-fix point releases with bug fixes and (occasionally) small feature backports. Bug fixes are accumulated and included in the next point release.
Stable point release every 4 to 6 weeks
Intended for production deployments
Bug fix backports for two full release cycles.
Online, rolling upgrade support and testing from the last two (2) stable release(s) (starting from Luminous).
Online, rolling upgrade support and testing from prior stable point releases
For each stable release:
Integration and upgrade tests are run on a regular basis and their results analyzed by Ceph developers.
Issues fixed in the development branch (master) are scheduled to be backported.
When an issue found in the stable release is reported, it is triaged by Ceph developers.
The stable releases and backport team publishes
point releasesincluding fixes that have been backported to the stable release.
Lifetime of stable releases
The lifetime of a stable release series is calculated to be approximately 24 months (i.e., two 12 month release cycles) after the month of the first release. For example, Mimic (13.2.z) will reach end of life (EOL) shortly after Octopus (15.2.0) is released. The lifetime of a release may vary because it depends on how quickly the stable releases are published.
In the case of Jewel and Kraken, the lifetime was slightly different than described above. Prior to Luminous, only every other stable release was an “LTS” release. Therefore,
Upgrade scenarios “Jewel -> Kraken -> Luminous” and “Jewel -> Luminous” were expected to work.
Upgrades from Jewel or Kraken must upgrade to Luminous first before proceeding further (e.g., Kraken -> Luminous -> Mimic but not Kraken -> Mimic).
Jewel was maintained until Mimic was released (June 2018).
Kraken is no longer maintained.
