We are excited to introduce EventStoreDB version 23.10.0 LTS, available for both OSS & Commercial users, and supported through to October 2025. The full changelog is available and for upgrade assistance or support inquiries, please get in touch.
You can find the upgrade procedure and list of breaking changes in the 23.10.0 Upgrade Guide.
As a Long-Term Support (LTS) release, we will support 23.10 for 2 years, concluding with the 25.10.0 release in October 2025.
Version 21.10 is now unsupported. A grace period extends until January 2024 for critical updates.
We recommend upgrades to 22.10 or 23.10 before year-end, using the online upgrade procedure detailed in these notes.
Packages are available on our website and can be installed via Packagecloud, Chocolatey, or Docker. See detailed commands/instructions for each platform.
The database now collects anonymous usage data from running clusters. We’ll be using this data to improve user experience and inform our future development.
You can opt out of sending telemetry by setting the EVENTSTORE_TELEMETRY_OPTOUT
environment variable to true
.

We introduced more helpful and usable metrics in Prometheus format, making it easier to understand what is happening in the database, and to make better decisions about how to operate it.
Check out our metrics blog post to learn how to set up some default dashboards with this new feature.
You can find a full list of the new metrics, how to configure them, and what the outputs of each look like in the metrics documentation.
In addition to the security updates included in version 23.6.0, we have improved the experience around configuring node certificates in a cluster. We now support using a wildcard in the ReservedNodeCommonName
option, so you no longer have to use wildcard certificates or certificates with the same CName on every node.
You can read more about these changes in our post about the Security Updates in version 23.10.
Refinements from version 23.6.0 continue, particularly renaming "External/Internal" interfaces to "Node/Replication" for clarity.
The old options have been deprecated and will be removed in 24.10 next year, but are still usable in 23.10. All of the deprecated and new options are listed in the Upgrade Guide.
There are some breaking changes when upgrading from 22.10 to 23.10. None of these changes prevent you from performing a rolling upgrade between these two versions.
The breaking changes are:
PrepareCount
and CommitCount
options have been removed.PersistentConfig1
has been renamed to $PersistentConfig
.Ext
and Int
have been deprecated. Use the options prefixed with Node
and Replication
respectively.You can read more about these breaking changes and what you should be aware of during an upgrade in the Upgrade Guide.
