Release Date: August 30, 2023
- This General Availability release 6.0.0.22 contains all hotfixes deployed during the release candidate cycle.
- When upgrading to server version 6.0, you must either trim or wipe (zeroize) the Aerospike header on the devices. A modified record storage format was introduced by AER-6513, which adds protection against partially written records during an unclean shutdown.
- For upgrading, or the unlikely event of downgrading, please refer to Special Upgrades.
- BREAKING CHANGE: The
truncate
privilege is now a separate privilege and is no longer under write
.
- The batch operations capability has been made comprehensive. We now fully support batch reads, writes, deletes, and UDF commands.
- The previously deprecated Predicate Expression API has been removed. Use Aerospike Filter Expressions (added in version 5.2).
- Service context configuration
paxos-single-replica-limit
has been removed.
- Configurations, Metrics, and Server Logs related to Scans are now referred to as Primary Index Queries (pi queries). For example, scan_basic_complete is now referred to as pi_query_long_basic_complete.
- The
jobs
info command is now officially deprecated and will continue to be supported through a deprecation period, after which it will be removed. jobs
are now redundant with the new secondary index building methods and the following new info commands:
query-show
replaces query-list
and the deprecated scan-show
command.
query-abort
replaces query-kill
and the deprecated scan-abort
command.
- The
batch-without-digests
configuration parameter has been removed.
- A number of
Best Practices
will be checked at startup. The Best Practices can be enforced by enabling the new enforce-best-practices
configuration item.
- Several configuration parameters have been renamed or removed. Please refer to
Config, Metrics, and Info Changes in Aerospike Database 6.0
.
- Use Prometheus Exporter version 1.2.1 or later to run Prometheus Exporter with this version of Aerospike Server.
Bug Fixes
- Enterprise & Federal Only
- [AER-6665] - (XDR) Batched durable deletes will cause a crash if DC namespace context configuration item
ship-bin-luts
is set.
Known Issues
- If you use
equality
secondary index queries that return a small number of records, you may see a latency increase in server releases 6.0-6.2. The inline-short-queries
configuration option provides a partial fix in server 6.3, and a more advanced fix is scheduled for server 6.4.
- If your secondary index query only returns 0 records or 1 record, meaning that it is acting as a unique index, you should consider converting such a query to a get/exists operation by creating a self-managed reverse index (lookup table).
- Spark Connector version 3.5 starts using batch writes when possible, a feature which was introduced in Aerospike server version 6.0. Consult the Spark Connector rate limiting documentation before you upgrade the server. Pay attention to throttling write throughput, and use Spark Connector 3.5.5 or later, which fixes throttling behavior to conform to the
aerospike.transaction.rate
.

Bug Fixes
- Enterprise, Federal & Community
- [AER-6568] - (QUERY) For single-bin namespaces, primary index queries erroneously fail without starting.
Known Issues
- If you use
equality
secondary index queries that return a small number of records, you may see a latency increase in server releases 6.0-6.2. The inline-short-queries
configuration option provides a partial fix in server 6.3, and a more advanced fix is scheduled for server 6.4.
- If your secondary index query only returns 0 records or 1 record, meaning that it is acting as a unique index, you should consider converting such a query to a get/exists operation by creating a self-managed reverse index (lookup table).
- Spark Connector version 3.5 starts using batch writes when possible, a feature which was introduced in Aerospike server version 6.0. Consult the Spark Connector rate limiting documentation before you upgrade the server. Pay attention to throttling write throughput, and use Spark Connector 3.5.5 or later, which fixes throttling behavior to conform to the

Release Date: August 23, 2022
- This General Availability release 6.0.0.5 contains all hotfixes deployed during the release candidate cycle.
- When upgrading to server version 6.0, you must either trim or wipe (zeroize) the Aerospike header on the devices. A modified record storage format was introduced by AER-6513, which adds protection against partially written records during an unclean shutdown.
- For upgrading, or the unlikely event of downgrading, please refer to Special Upgrades.
- BREAKING CHANGE: The
truncate
privilege is now a separate privilege and is no longer under write
.
- The batch operations capability has been made comprehensive. We now fully support batch reads, writes, deletes, and UDF commands.
- The previously deprecated Predicate Expression API has been removed. Use Aerospike Filter Expressions (added in version 5.2).

- [AER-6495] - (ACL) Added a separate 'truncate' privilege (no longer under 'write'), 'udf-admin' privilege, and 'sindex-admin' privilege.
- [AER-6487] - (BALANCE) To restore availability, revived nodes now require all nodes to be trusted (i.e. no e-flags).
- [AER-6505] - (LOGGING) Separated relevant XDR per-DC ticker line items into per-namespace lines.
- [AER-6501] - (SECURITY) Added support for a special Enterprise build which is FIPS 140-2 compliant.
- [AER-6483] - (XDR) Added DC namespace context configuration item
compression-threshold
to specify a size threshold for compression.
- [AER-6490] - (XDR) Added value 'no-bins' to DC namespace context configuration item
bin-policy
, to ship record metadata only, including keys, to connectors.
- [AER-6497] - (XDR) Reapply set shipping filters, and other configured filters, during retries.
- [AER-6498] - (XDR) Changed automatic throttling to reduce throughput more quickly, with a lower floor.
Known Issues
- If you use
equality
secondary index queries that return a small number of records, you may see a latency increase in server releases 6.0-6.2. The inline-short-queries
configuration option provides a partial fix in server 6.3, and a more advanced fix is scheduled for server 6.4.
- If your secondary index query only returns 0 records or 1 record, meaning that it is acting as a unique index, you should consider converting such a query to a get/exists operation by creating a self-managed reverse index (lookup table).
- Spark Connector version 3.5 starts using batch writes when possible, a feature which was introduced in Aerospike server version 6.0. Consult the Spark Connector rate limiting documentation before you upgrade the server. Pay attention to throttling write throughput, and use Spark Connector 3.5.5 or later, which fixes throttling behavior to conform to the
aerospike.transaction.rate
.

Updates
-
Release Date: April 6, 2023
- For upgrading, or the unlikely event of downgrading, please refer to Special Upgrades.
- The Predicate Expression API is obsolete. The Aerospike Server and Client have scheduled removal with our next major Aerospike Server release. Use Aerospike Filter Expressions (added in version 5.2).
- The
jobs
info command is now officially deprecated and will continue to be supported through a deprecation period, after which it will be removed. jobs
are now redundant with the new secondary index building methods and the following new info commands:
- The configuration parameter
batch-without-digests
, now defaults to true, is deprecated and will be removed in six months. Customers using clients older than a year (around the time of Server 4.9 which introduced batch-without-digests
) will now have to explicitly set the batch-without-digests
configuration item to false.
- A number of
Best Practices
will be checked at startup. The Best Practices can be enforced by enabling the new enforce-best-practices
configuration item.
- The security context configuration items
enable-security
and enable-ldap
have been removed. The Server will not start if either enable-security
or enable-ldap
is present in the configuration file.
- Security will now be enabled simply by the presence of the security { } section in the configuration file. Similarly, LDAP will now be enabled simply by the presence of the ldap { } section within the security { } section of the configuration file.
- To use XDR with ACL
auth-mode
must be explicitly configured.
- We build on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 8 instead of CentOS 8 when creating rpm packages.
- Use Prometheus Exporter version 1.2.1 or later to run Prometheus Exporter with this version of Aerospike Server.

Release Date: October 3, 2022
- The older Aerospike Connect Outbound versions do not work with Aerospike Server version 5.6 or newer. If you are using Aerospike Connect Outbound, you should upgrade respectively to:
- Aerospike Connect for JMS - Outbound version 3.0.0 or newer
- Aerospike Connect for Kafka - Outbound version 4.0.0 or newer
- Aerospike Connect for Pulsar - Outbound version 2.0.0 or newer
- XDR Proxy version 1.1.0 or newer
- In Aerospike Server 5.5 or earlier, a UDF returning a Boolean value as a bin would be converted to 1 or 0. In Aerospike 5.6 or newer the value returns as true or false.
- Downgrading from Aerospike Database version 5.5 or newer to version 5.4 or version 5.3 or version 5.2 (where XDR bin convergence has been used). Refer to Special Upgrades.
- Downgrading from Aerospike Database version 5.4 to version 5.3 or version 5.2 (where XDR bin convergence has been used). Refer to Special Upgrades.
- Downgrading from Aerospike Database version 5.2 or newer to a version previous to 5.2 (where XDR bin shipping has been used). Refer to Special Upgrades.
- ATTENTION: Debian/Ubuntu users - if python2 is not installed, see the Python Package Dependency for .deb Installers article.
- Support for the XDR
bin-policy
value 'only-specified', has been removed. Users of 'only-specified' will likely want to switch to 'changed-and-specified'.
- Aerospike Server version 5.1 or later requires the operating system distribution's libcurl shared object library.
- Before upgrading to 5.0.0.4 or later, customers already running 5.0.0.3 in a cluster which is an active XDR destination (i.e. an XDR destination also acting as a source XDR or that may in the future act as a source XDR), may want to consider stopping all XDR traffic to the cluster. (Enterprise Only)
- In the unlikely case of an upgraded 5.0.0.4 or newer node going down while 5.0.0.3 nodes are still running, those nodes would mistakenly ship XDR writes even if
forward
has not been explicitly enabled.
- Enterprise Licensees may contact Aerospike Support for any questions before upgrading.
- Cross-Datacenter Replication (XDR) running in Aerospike Server version 5.0 or newer can only connect to XDR destination clusters running versions 4.1 or newer.
- All nodes must be upgraded to Aerospike Server version 4.9.0.7 or newer. Please upgrade to the latest 4.9.0.x release prior to upgrading to Aerospike Server version 5.0 or newer.
- Aerospike Server version 5.0 or newer will not form a cluster with version 4.8 nodes or earlier.
- When upgrading the Aerospike Server refer to the Special Upgrades documentation.
- The Aerospike Server will not start if obsolete configuration parameters are set in the Aerospike configuration file (aerospike.conf).
- As of Aerospike Server 4.9 scans are correct. The scan priority, fail_on_cluster_change, and scan percent options, that were deprecated in Aerospike Server 4.9 are removed in Aerospike Server 5.6.
- ATTENTION: As of Aerospike Server version 4.9, expirations and evictions are disabled by default.
- The Predicate Expression API will be removed in the Aerospike Server version 6.0 release. Use Aerospike Filter Expressions (added in version 5.2).
- We have removed support for Ubuntu 16.04.

Release Date: June 30, 2022
- The older Aerospike Connect Outbound versions do not work with Aerospike Server version 5.6 or newer. If you are using Aerospike Connect Outbound, you should upgrade respectively to:
- Aerospike Connect for JMS - Outbound version 3.0.0 or newer
- Aerospike Connect for Kafka - Outbound version 4.0.0 or newer
- Aerospike Connect for Pulsar - Outbound version 2.0.0 or newer
- XDR Proxy version 1.1.0 or newer
- In Aerospike Server 5.5 or earlier, a UDF returning a Boolean value as a bin would be converted to 1 or 0. In Aerospike 5.6 or newer the value returns as true or false.
- Downgrading from Aerospike Database version 5.5 or newer to version 5.4 or version 5.3 or version 5.2 (where XDR bin convergence has been used). Refer to Special Upgrades.
- Downgrading from Aerospike Database version 5.4 to version 5.3 or version 5.2 (where XDR bin convergence has been used). Refer to Special Upgrades.
- Downgrading from Aerospike Database version 5.2 or newer to a version previous to 5.2 (where XDR bin shipping has been used). Refer to Special Upgrades.
- ATTENTION: Debian/Ubuntu users - if python2 is not installed, see the Python Package Dependency for .deb Installers article.
- Support for the XDR
bin-policy
value 'only-specified', has been removed. Users of 'only-specified' will likely want to switch to 'changed-and-specified'.
- Aerospike Server version 5.1 or later requires the operating system distribution's libcurl shared object library.
- Before upgrading to 5.0.0.4 or later, customers already running 5.0.0.3 in a cluster which is an active XDR destination (i.e. an XDR destination also acting as a source XDR or that may in the future act as a source XDR), may want to consider stopping all XDR traffic to the cluster. (Enterprise Only)
- In the unlikely case of an upgraded 5.0.0.4 or newer node going down while 5.0.0.3 nodes are still running, those nodes would mistakenly ship XDR writes even if
forward
has not been explicitly enabled.
- Enterprise Licensees may contact Aerospike Support for any questions before upgrading.
- Cross-Datacenter Replication (XDR) running in Aerospike Server version 5.0 or newer can only connect to XDR destination clusters running versions 4.1 or newer.
- All nodes must be upgraded to Aerospike Server version 4.9.0.7 or newer. Please upgrade to the latest 4.9.0.x release prior to upgrading to Aerospike Server version 5.0 or newer.
- Aerospike Server version 5.0 or newer will not form a cluster with version 4.8 nodes or earlier.
- When upgrading the Aerospike Server refer to the Special Upgrades documentation.
- The Aerospike Server will not start if obsolete configuration parameters are set in the Aerospike configuration file (aerospike.conf).
- As of Aerospike Server 4.9 scans are correct. The scan priority, fail_on_cluster_change, and scan percent options, that were deprecated in Aerospike Server 4.9 are removed in Aerospike Server 5.6.
- ATTENTION: As of Aerospike Server version 4.9, expirations and evictions are disabled by default.
- The Predicate Expression API will be removed in the Aerospike Server version 6.0 release. Use Aerospike Filter Expressions (added in version 5.2).
- We have removed support for Ubuntu 16.04.
- Use Prometheus Exporter version 1.2.1 or later to run Prometheus Exporter with this version of Aerospike Server.
Bug Fixes

Release Date: September 20, 2021
- The older Aerospike Connect Outbound versions do not work with Aerospike Server version 5.6 or newer. If you are using Aerospike Connect Outbound, you should upgrade respectively to:
- Aerospike Connect for JMS - Outbound version 3.0.0 or newer
- Aerospike Connect for Kafka - Outbound version 4.0.0 or newer
- Aerospike Connect for Pulsar - Outbound version 2.0.0 or newer
- XDR Proxy version 1.1.0 or newer
- In Aerospike Server 5.5 or earlier, a UDF returning a Boolean value as a bin would be converted to 1 or 0. In Aerospike 5.6 or newer the value returns as true or false.
- Downgrading from Aerospike Database version 5.5 or newer to version 5.4 or version 5.3 or version 5.2 (where XDR bin convergence has been used). Refer to Special Upgrades.
- Downgrading from Aerospike Database version 5.4 to version 5.3 or version 5.2 (where XDR bin convergence has been used). Refer to Special Upgrades.
- Downgrading from Aerospike Database version 5.2 or newer to a version previous to 5.2 (where XDR bin shipping has been used). Refer to Special Upgrades.
- ATTENTION: Debian/Ubuntu users - if python2 is not installed, see the Python Package Dependency for .deb Installers article.
- Support for the XDR
bin-policy
value 'only-specified', has been removed. Users of 'only-specified' will likely want to switch to 'changed-and-specified'.
- Aerospike Server version 5.1 or later requires the operating system distribution's libcurl shared object library.
- Before upgrading to 5.0.0.4 or later, customers already running 5.0.0.3 in a cluster which is an active XDR destination (i.e. an XDR destination also acting as a source XDR or that may in the future act as a source XDR), may want to consider stopping all XDR traffic to the cluster. (Enterprise Only)
- In the unlikely case of an upgraded 5.0.0.4 or newer node going down while 5.0.0.3 nodes are still running, those nodes would mistakenly ship XDR writes even if
forward
has not been explicitly enabled.
- Enterprise Licensees may contact Aerospike Support for any questions before upgrading.
- Cross-Datacenter Replication (XDR) running in Aerospike Server version 5.0 or newer can only connect to XDR destination clusters running versions 4.1 or newer.

Release Date: May 24, 2021
- The older Aerospike Connect Outbound versions do not work with Aerospike Server version 5.6 or newer. If you are using Aerospike Connect Outbound, you should upgrade respectively to:
- Aerospike Connect for JMS - Outbound version 3.0.0 or newer
- Aerospike Connect for Kafka - Outbound version 4.0.0 or newer
- Aerospike Connect for Pulsar - Outbound version 2.0.0 or newer
- XDR Proxy version 1.1.0 or newer
- In Aerospike Server 5.5 or earlier, a UDF returning a Boolean value as a bin would be converted to 1 or 0. In Aerospike 5.6 or newer the value returns as true or false.
- Downgrading from Aerospike Database version 5.5 or newer to version 5.4 or version 5.3 or version 5.2 (where XDR bin convergence has been used). Refer to Special Upgrades.
- Downgrading from Aerospike Database version 5.4 to version 5.3 or version 5.2 (where XDR bin convergence has been used). Refer to Special Upgrades.
- Downgrading from Aerospike Database version 5.2 or newer to a version previous to 5.2 (where XDR bin shipping has been used). Refer to Special Upgrades.
- ATTENTION: Debian/Ubuntu users - if python2 is not installed, see the Python Package Dependency for .deb Installers article.
- Support for the XDR
bin-policy
value 'only-specified', has been removed. Users of 'only-specified' will likely want to switch to 'changed-and-specified'.
- Aerospike Server version 5.1 or later requires the operating system distribution's libcurl shared object library.
- Before upgrading to 5.0.0.4 or later, customers already running 5.0.0.3 in a cluster which is an active XDR destination (i.e. an XDR destination also acting as a source XDR or that may in the future act as a source XDR), may want to consider stopping all XDR traffic to the cluster. (Enterprise Only)
- In the unlikely case of an upgraded 5.0.0.4 or newer node going down while 5.0.0.3 nodes are still running, those nodes would mistakenly ship XDR writes even if
forward
has not been explicitly enabled.
- Enterprise Licensees may contact Aerospike Support for any questions before upgrading.

- Downgrading from Aerospike Database version 5.4 to version 5.3 or version 5.2 (where XDR bin convergence has been used). Refer to Special Upgrades.
- Downgrading from Aerospike Database version 5.2 or newer to a version previous to 5.2 (where XDR bin shipping has been used). Refer to Special Upgrades.
- ATTENTION: Debian/Ubuntu users - if python2 is not installed, see the Python Package Dependency for .deb Installers article.
- Support for the XDR
bin-policy
value 'only-specified', has been removed. Users of 'only-specified' will likely want to switch to 'changed-and-specified'.
- Aerospike Server version 5.1 or later requires the operating system distribution's libcurl shared object library.
- Before upgrading to 5.0.0.4 or later, customers already running 5.0.0.3 in a cluster which is an active XDR destination (i.e. an XDR destination also acting as a source XDR or that may in the future act as a source XDR), may want to consider stopping all XDR traffic to the cluster. (Enterprise Only)
- In the unlikely case of an upgraded 5.0.0.4 or newer node going down while 5.0.0.3 nodes are still running, those nodes would mistakenly ship XDR writes even if
forward
has not been explicitly enabled.
- Enterprise Licensees may contact Aerospike Support for any questions before upgrading.
- Cross-Datacenter Replication (XDR) running in Aerospike Server version 5.0 or newer can only connect to XDR destination clusters running versions 4.1 or newer.
- All nodes must be upgraded to Aerospike Server version 4.9.0.7 or newer. Please upgrade to the latest 4.9.0.x release prior to upgrading to Aerospike Server version 5.0 or newer.
- Aerospike Server version 5.0 or newer will not form a cluster with version 4.8 nodes or earlier.
- When upgrading the Aerospike Server refer to the Special Upgrades documentation.
- The Aerospike Server will not start if obsolete configuration parameters are set in the Aerospike configuration file (aerospike.conf).

Release Date: December 10, 2020
- Downgrading from Aerospike Database version 5.2 or newer to a version previous to 5.2 (where XDR bin shipping has been used). Refer to Special Upgrades.
- The Cross-Datacenter Replication (XDR) feature now includes the ability to filter using Expressions.
- ATTENTION: Debian/Ubuntu users - if python2 is not installed, see the Python Package Dependency for .deb Installers article.
- Support for the XDR
bin-policy
value 'only-specified', has been removed. Users of 'only-specified' will likely want to switch to 'changed-and-specified'.
- Aerospike Server version 5.1 or later requires the operating system distribution's libcurl shared object library.
- Before upgrading to 5.0.0.4 or later, customers already running 5.0.0.3 in a cluster which is an active XDR destination (i.e. an XDR destination also acting as a source XDR or that may in the future act as a source XDR), may want to consider stopping all XDR traffic to the cluster. (Enterprise Only)
- In the unlikely case of an upgraded 5.0.0.4 or newer node going down while 5.0.0.3 nodes are still running, those nodes would mistakenly ship XDR writes even if
forward
has not been explicitly enabled.
- Enterprise Licensees may contact Aerospike Support for any questions before upgrading.
- Cross-Datacenter Replication (XDR) running in Aerospike Server version 5.0 or newer can only connect to XDR destination clusters running versions 4.1 or newer.
- All nodes must be upgraded to Aerospike Server version 4.9.0.7 or newer. Please upgrade to the latest 4.9.0.x release prior to upgrading to Aerospike Server version 5.0 or newer.
- Aerospike Server version 5.0 or newer will not form a cluster with version 4.8 nodes or earlier.
- When upgrading the Aerospike Server refer to the Special Upgrades documentation.
- The Aerospike Server will not start if obsolete configuration parameters are set in the Aerospike configuration file (aerospike.conf).
- ATTENTION: As of Aerospike Server version 4.9, expirations and evictions are disabled by default.
