This release (2.1.0-b123) of Cloudera DataFlow (CDF) on CDP Public Cloud introduces support for DataFlow service upgrades as a technical preview feature, Inbound Connection configuration through the create-deployment CLI command, Kubernetes 1.22 as well as additional improvements and fixes.

New features and changes

  • [Technical Preview] CDF environment and deployment upgrades are now supported.

    CDF service upgrades require a specific entitlement that is granted by request only. Reach out to your Cloudera Account Representative or open a support ticket to request CDF service upgrades.

  • The create-deployment CLI command now supports Inbound Connections.
  • CDF now correctly configures the deployment when it detects any of the two reserved Controller Services Default NiFi SSL Context Service and Inbound SSL Context Service regardless of whether they are external references or not.
  • Kubernetes Version 1.22 is now the default Kubernetes version for CDF. When CDF is enabled, it creates AWS EKS and Azure AKS clusters based on version 1.22.
  • CDF now supports Data Lake scaling. After the Data Lake scale operation has completed, affected deployments will show an active alert and need to be manually restarted to put the new configuration in effect.
  • The Event Hub to ADLS ReadyFlow now allows you to specify an Event Hub Service Bus Endpoint.
