[[rn_1.13.0_wire_compatibility]]
== Wire Protocol compatibility
Kudu 1.13.0 is wire-compatible with previous versions of Kudu:
* Kudu 1.13 clients may connect to servers running Kudu 1.0 or later. If the client uses
features that are not available on the target server, an error will be returned.
* Rolling upgrade between Kudu 1.12 and Kudu 1.13 servers is believed to be possible
though has not been sufficiently tested. Users are encouraged to shut down all nodes
in the cluster, upgrade the software, and then restart the daemons on the new version.
* Kudu 1.0 clients may connect to servers running Kudu 1.13 with the exception of the
below-mentioned restrictions regarding secure clusters.
The authentication features introduced in Kudu 1.3 place the following limitations
on wire compatibility between Kudu 1.13 and versions earlier than 1.3:
* If a Kudu 1.13 cluster is configured with authentication or encryption set to "required",
clients older than Kudu 1.3 will be unable to connect.
* If a Kudu 1.13 cluster is configured with authentication and encryption set to "optional"
or "disabled", older clients will still be able to connect.

vice-versa.
* The Kudu 1.13 {cpp} client is API- and ABI-forward-compatible with Kudu 1.12.
Applications written and compiled against the Kudu 1.12 client library will run without
modification against the Kudu 1.13 client library. Applications written and compiled
against the Kudu 1.13 client library will run without modification against the Kudu 1.12
client library.
* The Kudu 1.13 Python client is API-compatible with Kudu 1.12. Applications
written against Kudu 1.12 will continue to run against the Kudu 1.13 client
