 ==== Generic records with AUTO_CONSUME
 If there is no chance to know the type of schema of a Pulsar topic in advance, you can use the `AUTO_CONSUME` schema type to consume generic records.
 In this case, the topic deserializes messages into `GenericRecord` objects using the schema info associated with the topic.

 === Producing with AUTO_SCHEMA
 If there is no chance to know the type of schema of a Pulsar topic in advance, you can use an {apache-pulsar-docs}/schema-get-started/#auto_produce[AUTO_PRODUCE] schema to publish a raw JSON or Avro payload as a `byte[]` safely.

+== What's New in 1.1 Since 1.0
+:page-section-summary-toc: 1
+
+This section covers the changes made from version 1.0 to version 1.1.
+
+=== Auto Schema support
+If there is no chance to know the schema of a Pulsar topic in advance, you can use AUTO Schemas to produce/consume generic records to/from brokers.
+See xref:./reference/pulsar.adoc#template-auto-produce[Producing with AUTO_SCHEMA] and xref:./reference/pulsar.adoc#listener-auto-consume[Consuming with AUTO_SCHEMA] for more details.
+
+NOTE: While the above links focus on `PulsarTemplate` and `@PulsarListener`, this feature is also supported in `ReactivePulsarTemplate`, `@ReactivePulsarListener`, and `@PulsarReader`.
+Details for each can be found in their respective section of this reference guide.
+
+=== Default topic/schema via message annotation
+You can now mark a message class with `@PulsarMessage` to specify the xref:./reference/pulsar.adoc#default-topic-via-annotation[default topic] and/or xref:./reference/pulsar.adoc#listener-default-schema-annotation[default schema] to use when producing/consuming messages of that type.
+
+=== Remove checked exceptions
+The APIs provided by the framework no longer throw the checked `PulsarClientException`, but rather the unchecked `PulsarException`.
+
+WARNING: If you were previously catching or rethrowing `PulsarClientException` just to appease the compiler and were not actually handling the exception, you can simply remove your `catch` or `throws` clause.
+If you were actually handling the exception then you will need to replace `PulsarClientException` with `PulsarException` in your catch clause.
