@Rocky Which of 3.4, 3.5, and 4.1 is the stable version?
r
As of July 2026, the status for these versions is as follows: * v3.5 is the current Stable version. It is the designated Long-Term Support (LTS) branch for production environments that prioritize reliability over the latest feature set. * v4.1 is the Latest version. This is the most recent minor release (v4.1.1 was released in May 2026) and includes the newest features like multi-tenant range-based tablet auto-splitting and native support for Iceberg Variant data. * v3.4 is an older minor version. While it still receives maintenance updates (such as v3.4.10), it is no longer the primary stable recommendation for new deployments. Summary: Version | Status 3.5 | Stable (LTS) 4.1 | Latest (Feature Release) 3.4 | Maintenance For production workloads, the StarRocks community generally recommends using the Stable (v3.5) branch. If you need the latest performance optimizations and architectural improvements (like those in the v4.x series), you should use v4.1.
