Amazon MSK now supports in-place version upgrades for Tiered Storage enabled clusters
You can now upgrade the Apache Kafka version of Tiered Storage enabled Amazon MSK clusters. Clusters using version v2.8.2.tiered can now upgrade in-place to the latest Apache Kafka version 3.6.0, which supports production-grade Tiered Storage in Amazon MSK. In-place upgrades use Amazon MSK’s rolling version upgrade capability, which keeps the cluster available at all times during the upgrade.
