## RabbitMQ 3.8.27
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
RabbitMQ `3.8.27` is a maintenance release.
|
||
|
|
All users are recommended to upgrade to this release.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Obtaining Packages
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
RabbitMQ releases are distributed via [GitHub](https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/releases), [Cloudsmith](https://cloudsmith.io/~rabbitmq/repos/),
|
||
|
|
and [PackageCloud](https://packagecloud.io/rabbitmq).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Erlang/OTP Compatibility Notes
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This release [requires Erlang 23.2](https://www.rabbitmq.com/which-erlang.html) and [supports Erlang 24](https://blog.rabbitmq.com/posts/2021/03/erlang-24-support-roadmap/).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[Provisioning Latest Erlang Releases](https://www.rabbitmq.com/which-erlang.html#erlang-repositories) explains
|
||
|
|
what package repositories and tools can be used to provision modern Erlang versions.
|
||
|
