Kubeflow Pipelines version format follows semantic versioning.
Kubeflow Pipelines versions are in the format of X.Y.Z
, where X
is the major version,
Y
is the minor version, and Z
is the patch version.
As a guideline, we increment the:
- MAJOR version when we make breaking changes on stable features.
- MINOR version when we add functionality in a backwards compatible manner.
- PATCH version when we make backwards compatible bug fixes.
In reality, we are not following the guideline strictly. For example, a PATCH version might include a backward compatible new feature that is considered to be low-risk.
Additionally, we do pre-releases as an extension in the format of X.Y.Z-rc.N
where N
is a number. The appendix indicates the Nth release candidate before
an upcoming public release named X.Y.Z
.
The Kubeflow Pipelines version X.Y.Z
refers to the version (git tag) of the released
Kubeflow Pipelines. Versions include all released artifacts, such as:
kfp
andkfp-server-api
python packages.- Install manifests.
- Docker images on gcr.io/ml-pipeline.
