Quarkus 3.8 - Our new LTS version
It is with great pleasure that we are announcing the release of Quarkus 3.8, our new LTS release (see this blog post for more information about our LTS releases).
LTS releases are maintained for a period of 12 months.
The previous LTS release was 3.2 and a lot of exciting new features have been added to Quarkus since then.
As we explained in this blog post, 3.8 is the direct continuation of the 3.7 branch, so it doesn’t contain any new features compared to 3.7 (at least for core features, see below for new features in Quarkus CXF).
It contains several additional fixes though, including a CVE fix for CVE-2024-1597 - PostgreSQL JDBC Driver (we skipped 3.8.0 to include this particular fix).
It is a recommended upgrade for everyone, including people using the previous 3.2 LTS.
Actualización
To update to Quarkus 3.8, we recommend updating to the latest version of the Quarkus CLI and run:
quarkus updateNote that quarkus update can update your applications from any version of Quarkus (including 2.x) to Quarkus 3.8.
To migrate from 3.7, you don’t have anything to do except updating the version.
If you are not already using 3.x, please refer to the 3.0 announcement for all the details. You can also refer to this blog post for additional details. Once you upgraded to 3.0, also have a look at the 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, and 3.6, and 3.7 migration guides.
What’s new?
