Cloud Composer 2.6.6 release started on March 26, 2024. Get ready for upcoming changes and features as we roll out the new release to all regions. This release is in progress at the moment. Listed changes and features might not be available in some regions yet.

The Logs in Cloud Logging only feature is available in all regions.

In new environments with Airflow 2.6.3 and 2.7.3 the default values of the following Airflow configuration options are changed to provide more optimized Cloud Composer environments:

  • [scheduler]job_heartbeat_sec to 30
  • [scheduler]scheduler_health_check_threshold to 60
  • [scheduler]scheduler_heartbeat_sec to 15

If you want to override the [scheduler]scheduler_heartbeat_sec option's value, then also adjust the [scheduler]scheduler_health_check_threshold option, as described in Cloud Composer documentation.

Cloud Composer 2.6.6 images are available:

  • composer-2.6.6-airflow-2.7.3
  • composer-2.6.6-airflow-2.6.3 (default)
  • composer-2.6.6-airflow-2.5.3

March 25, 2024

In Cloud Composer versions from 2.1.0 to 2.6.4, task instances that succeeded in the past can be marked as FAILED in some cases. We recommend to upgrade to Cloud Composer version 2.6.5 or later where this issue is fixed. For more information, see the related known issue.

March 20, 2024

The Logs in Cloud Logging only feature is gradually rolled out to all regions:

  • New Cloud Composer environments now save Airflow task logs only in Cloud Logging by default.
  • Existing environments are not changed. If you upgrade an existing environment, it keeps saving logs to the environment's bucket.
  • You can enable and disable saving logs to the environment's bucket for an existing environment.

Currently the feature is rolled out to the following regions: africa-south1, asia-east1, asia-east2, asia-northeast2, asia-south2, asia-southeast2, australia-southeast2, europe-central2, europe-southwest1, europe-west10, europe-west12, europe-west2, europe-west3, europe-west4, europe-west6, europe-west8, me-central1, me-central2, me-west1, northamerica-northeast2, southamerica-west1, us-east5, us-east7, us-south1, and us-west4.

Cloud Composer versions 2.1.10, 2.1.9, 1.20.10, and 1.20.9 have reached their end of full support period.

March 14, 2024

In Airflow 2.6.3 offered in Cloud Composer versions earlier than 2.6.2, task statuses can be deleted as a result of the #31179 Airflow issue. If you use Airflow 2.6.3, we recommend to upgrade to Cloud Composer version 2.6.2 or later where this issue is fixed.

March 13, 2024

All preview versions of Cloud Composer 2 are past their security notifications end date and are not supported. If your environment uses a preview version of Cloud Composer 2, then please upgrade this environment to a supported version or re-create it using the latest version of Cloud Composer 2.

If you see frequent scheduler restarts in your Airflow 2.6.3 environment and the [scheduler]job_heartbeat_sec Airflow configuration option is set to a non-default value, you can fix this issue either by upgrading to Cloud Composer version 2.6.4 or by removing this option's override, so that it uses the default value.

March 12, 2024

(Cloud Composer 2 in select regions) Cloud Composer shows the account selection and consent screens when opening Airflow UI for an environment.

If you have the "Don't allow users to access any third-party apps" setting enabled in Google Workspace, then configure access to the "Apache Airflow in Cloud Composer" app in Google Workspace, so that your Google Workspace users can still access Airflow UI in Cloud Composer environments. For more information, see Allow access to Airflow UI in Google Workspace.

(Cloud Composer 2 in select regions) Reduced the propagation time of the revoked Cloud IAM permission that blocks access to Airflow UI.

In new environments with Airflow 2.6.3, the default values of the following Airflow configuration options are changed to provide more optimized Cloud Composer environments:

  • [scheduler]job_heartbeat_sec to 30
  • [scheduler]scheduler_heartbeat_sec to 15

February 22, 2024

Fixed a problem where one DAG run could potentially delete task instances from other DAG runs if run_id was the same (backported #32684 from a later Airflow version).

Cloud Composer 2.6.2 images are available:

  • composer-2.6.2-airflow-2.6.3 (default)
  • composer-2.6.2-airflow-2.5.3

February 15, 2024

Starting February 16, 2024, in the asia-east2, asia-northeast1, asia-northeast2, asia-northeast3, asia-south1, and australia-southeast1 regions it is possible to create new Cloud Composer 1 environments only in projects that already have Cloud Composer 1 environments.

In all other existing or newly created projects in these regions, it is possible to create only Cloud Composer 2 environments. This change is a part of the preparation for Cloud Composer 1 end of support, as communicated earlier and described in the Versioning overview.

The apache-airflow-providers-google package is upgraded to version 10.14.0 in images with Airflow 2.6.3. For more information about changes, see the apache-airflow-providers-google changelog from version 10.13.1 to version 10.14.0.

Improved the reliability of syncing Airflow tasks logs to the environment bucket. This fix addresses the issue with storing Airflow task log files, which affected environments in some cases.

February 08, 2024

The enabling and disabling functionality for the Logs in Cloud Logging only feature was temporarily rolled back.

At the moment, it is not possible to enable or disable this feature, and your environment will keep its current configuration. If this feature is enabled, Cloud Composer will keep saving logs to Cloud Logging only. Newly created environments save logs to Cloud Logging only and the environment's bucket.

We will announce when the issue is resolved.

February 05, 2024

Data lineage is now generally available (GA) in Cloud Composer 2.

Data lineage integration is now enabled by default in newly created environments with Cloud Composer version 2.1.2 and later, if Data Lineage API is enabled in the environment's project. Existing and upgraded environments keep their current configuration.

Python 3.11 is available in environments with Airflow 2.6.3:

  • New environments with Airflow 2.6.3 use Python 3.11. Python 3.8 is no longer available in new environments with Airflow 2.6.3.

  • Existing environments with Airflow 2.6.3 switch to Python 3.11 when upgraded. Before upgrading, make sure that custom PyPI packages in your environment are compatible with Python 3.11.

  • New and upgraded environments with Airflow 2.5.3 keep using Python 3.8.

  • Cloud Composer versions earlier than 2.6.0 keep using Python 3.8.

Airflow worker memory requirements in Python 3.11 are 10% higher compared to workers in Python 3.8. If you use custom settings for Airflow worker CPU and memory limits, then Airflow workers in your environment might enter the CrashLoopBackOff status and stop executing tasks, if resource consumption goes above the limit.

If your environment is impacted, see the related known issue for possible solutions: Workers require more memory than in previous Airflow versions.

The default worker_concurrency formula was adjusted in Airflow 2.6.3 and later versions to accommodate this change.

(Available without upgrading) The default worker_concurrency in Airflow 2.6.3 and later versions is now calculated using a different formula. For more information, see Change worker concurrency.

Connections to the Redis environment component are now additionally secured with a password. Improved the reliability of the environment component responsible for metrics reporting (airflow-monitoring).

The apache-airflow-providers-google package is upgraded to version 10.13.1 in images with Airflow 2.6.3. For more information about changes, see the apache-airflow-providers-google changelog from version 10.12.0 to version 10.13.1.

January 31, 2024

In the first half of February, 2024, Cloud Composer 2 environments with Airflow 2.6.3 will start using Python 3.11:

  • New and upgraded environments with Airflow 2.6.3 will switch to Python 3.11.
  • New and upgraded environments with Airflow 2.5.3 will still use Python 3.8.
  • Python 3.8 will no longer be available in new versions of Cloud Composer with Airflow 2.6.3 (and later versions of Airflow).
  • Existing environments with Airflow 2.6.3 will keep using Python 3.8 until they are upgraded.
  • Cloud Composer versions released before this change will keep using Python 3.8.

January 25, 2024

The Logs in Cloud Logging Only feature is now generally available (GA):

  • New Cloud Composer environments now save Airflow task logs only in Cloud Logging by default.
  • Existing environments are not changed. If you upgrade an existing environment to Cloud Composer 2.5.5, it keeps saving logs to the environment's bucket.
  • You can enable and disable saving logs to the environment's bucket for an existing environment.

Increased the amount of memory available to the Redis component in environments with Medium and Large environment sizes. This change improves the performance of Cloud Composer environments.

Sensitive Airflow configuration options are now hidden in Airflow UI by default. The default value of the [webserver]expose_config option is now set to non-sensitive-only.

(Available without upgrading) In VPC Service Controls setups, device policy attributes in access levels are now respected when accessing the Airflow web server.

(Available without upgrading) Auxiliary Cloud Pub/Sub topics and subscriptions used by save and load snapshot operations are now cleaned up if these operations fail.

Starting July 2023, the new composer.environments.executeAirflowCommand permission will be required to run Airflow CLI commands through the gcloud composer environments run command:

  • The composer.user and composer.environmentAndStorageObjectViewer roles do not have this permission and will not be permitted to run Airflow CLI commands starting July 2023.

  • This permission is already available in IAM and you can assign it in advance.

  • This permission is already added to the composer.admin composer.environmentAndStorageObjectAdmin roles.

  • This change applies only to Cloud Composer 2 environments. It will still be possible to run Airflow CLI commands on Cloud Composer 1 environments without this permission.

(Cloud Composer 2) The number of web server workers is now set dynamically based on available web server CPU and memory. This change improves Airflow web server performance and scalability by allowing it to handle more users.

  • These workers are internal to the gunicorn web server and are not related to workers that run tasks.

  • The new value is applied to the [webserver]workers Airflow configuration option when you change the environment's configuration. To use a different value, override this Airflow configuration option.

  • The number of web server workers is clamped between 2 and 12 workers and is calculated as the minimum of (web_server_CPU * 2) + 1 and web_server_memory * 1.1.

(Cloud Composer 2) You can now use custom certificates when installing packages from your private repository.

(Cloud Composer 2) The deprecated [core]non_pooled_task_slot_count Airflow configuration option is replaced with the [core]default_pool_task_slot_count configuration option in the default Airflow configuration. Make sure to update your custom Airflow configuration overrides to use the new option instead of the deprecated one.

We are currently experiencing an issue with gcloud CLI version 410.0.0. Some composer commands return non-zero error codes along with an additional gcloud crashed (TypeError): 'NoneType' object is not callable) output message.

This issue doesn't impact the functionality provided by the commands when used in interactive mode. It may contribute to misleading error stack traces and cause failures when using the commands programmatically since it returns non-zero error codes.

October 31, 2022

The apache-airflow-providers-google package in images with Airflow 2.1.4 and 2.2.5 was upgraded to 2022.10.17+composer. Changes compared to version 2022.9.6+composer:

  • Upgraded requirements for the google-cloud-container package from >=0.1.1,<2.0.0 to >=2.2.0,<3.0.0.
  • Added changes for GKEHook and GKE unit tests from #22852, without pulling changes for DataprocCreateClusterOperator.

Cloud Composer versions 1.17.3 and 2.0.0-preview.4 have reached their end of full support period.

October 18, 2022

(Available without upgrading) Fixed the issue with the CrashLoopBackOff task status in Airflow 2.3. The default worker_concurrency in Airflow 2.3.3 and later versions is now calculated using both worker CPU and worker memory values. See Change worker concurrency.

Starting from Cloud Composer version 2.0.29, new private IP environments by default use Private Service Connect (instead of VPC peerings).

You can set HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY environment variables in your environment. These standard Linux variables are used to route traffic through the specified proxies. The NO_PROXY variable by default is set to a list of Google domains so that they are excluded from proxying.

(Cloud Composer 2) Cloud Composer now generates appropriate error messages if your environment components cannot access required Google domains.

The result of the airflow_monitoring DAG is no longer automatically sent to XCom. This change improves monitoring performance.

Cloud Composer 1.19.12 and 2.0.29 images are available:

  • composer-1.19.12-airflow-1.10.15 (default)

October 06, 2022

Starting from January 2023, the default version for new Cloud Composer environments changes from Cloud Composer 1 to Cloud Composer 2. New environments will use the latest Cloud Composer 2 version with the default Airflow 2 version (composer-2-airflow-2). Currently, the default version is composer-1-airflow-1.10.15.

This issue was addressed in a later release. The worker concurrency formula was changed in Airflow 2.3.3 and later versions.

Airflow worker memory requirements in Airflow 2.3 are 30% higher compared to workers in Airflow 2.2 or Airflow 2.1, which causes problems with automatically calculated Airflow worker concurrency.

If you use custom settings for Airflow worker CPU and memory, then Airflow workers in your environment might enter the CrashLoopBackOff status and stop executing tasks. We work on providing an adjustment in Cloud Composer service for this issue and will announce when it is available.

Please see the related known issue for possible solutions: Workers in Airflow 2.3 require more memory than in previous Airflow versions.

September 29, 2022

Airflow 2.3.3 is available in Cloud Composer images.

Images with Airflow 2.3.3 use the public version 8.1.0 of the apache-airflow-providers-google package. Other Cloud Composer images still use a custom version of this package, which is based on the public version 6.8.0.

When upgrading to Airflow 2.3, make sure that your environment is not affected by breaking changes introduced in the version 7.0.0 of this package.

September 12, 2022

(New environments only) Encryption with customer-managed encryption keys (CMEK) now applies to the persistent disk of the environment's Redis queue.

(Available without upgrading) Fixed a problem where the termination grace period for Airflow worker Pods in Cloud Composer 2 was set to 30 seconds (from 3600 seconds) after updating an environment. If your environment is impacted, this fix will apply automatically on the next update (or upgrade) operation. To apply the fix immediately, you can override and then delete a non-existing environment variable in your environment.

(Available without upgrading) When an environment is deleted, Cloud Composer automatically deletes the persistent disk of the environment's Redis queue.

Set the logging level of Airflow's DeprecationWarning messages to Warning.

(Available without upgrading) Cloud Composer now makes several attempts to create an environment when the Cloud Composer connection subnetwork is locked by another operation. This change improves the reliability when creating environments with Public Service Connect.

Fixed a potential race condition in Airflow workers that could cause new tasks to be executed on a worker that is scheduled to be scaled down. This fix prevents Airflow tasks from being stuck in the running state.

Adjusted CPU limits for the FluentD environment component (responsible for uploading task logs to Cloud Logging), to avoid potential problems that might result in missing logs in Cloud Logging.

The apache-airflow-providers-google package was upgraded to 2022.8.26+composer. Changes compared to version 2022.8.23+composer:

Cloud Composer 1.12.0 has reached its end of full support period.

September 15, 2021

Airflow 2 in Cloud Composer is now generally available (GA).

HA Scheduler in Cloud Composer is now generally available (GA).

We plan to stop offering Airflow 1.10.14 and 1.10.12 in new versions of Cloud Composer. Starting from December 2021, new releases of Cloud Composer will support only Airflow 1.10.15 and Airflow 2.x versions.

We plan to switch new versions of Cloud Composer with Airflow 1.10.15 to Python 3.8. Starting from November 2021, new Cloud Composer images with Airflow 1.10.15 will use Python 3.8 instead of Python 3.6. Please check for PyPI package compatibility before upgrading your environment to a version with Python 3.8.

Java Runtime in Airflow workers and schedulers is updated from version 8 to version 11.

The default value for the visibility-timeout Airflow configuration option, which determines the amount of time after which the task is re-picked by another worker, is increased from 6 hours to 7 days. This change fixes a problem with long-running tasks, when two Airflow workers attempt to write to one log file at the same time, causing tasks to fail with a logging exception.

Airflow has its own system for controlling task health, which is not dependent on visibility-timeout. If required, you can override the value of this configuration option for your environment.

If an Airflow configuration option is blocked in the image version specified for an upgrade operation, and this option has an override in your environment, the upgrade operation is rejected.

In Airflow UI, menu items for Configuration and DAG dependencies pages are now correctly displayed for users with the Op role.

Fixed a potential infinite loop in the airflow-monitoring pod. Environment health checks no longer get stuck after certain types of environment update operations.

Fixed the cause of failures when creating Qwiklabs environments.

When creating environments, unmet network requirements for pods and services cause the operation to fail immediately. Previously, the operation failed when a timeout was reached.

Cloud Composer acquires existing environment resources if they are available during an upgrade operation. Before, the operation could fail with the "ALREADY_EXISTS" error in some cases.

Added a precondition check for upgrade operations. This check verifies that GKE control plane can reach GKE nodes. Previously, if there was a networking problem with communication between the control plane and GKE nodes, the operation failed on a timeout.

Fixed a problem with airflow-monitoring not having logs after changing the machine type for GKE Cluster in a Cloud Composer environment.

Upgraded apache-airflow-backport-providers-google package to version 2021.2.5 in Airflow 1.10.12 and 1.10.14. This is potentially a breaking change because the package contains updates of Python Google Cloud libraries. For a list of new operators and for more information about breaking changes, see the 2021.2.5 release notes.

The google-cloud-pubsublite package is installed by default in Composer images for Airflow 1.10.12 and 1.10.14.

Improved the reliability of environment upgrade operations. Added new retrying procedures and enhanced existing ones.

Fixed the cause of several update-related errors.
