This release introduces OpenTelemetry-based log collection as a replacement for Promtail, adds support for custom Kubernetes manifests in the values repository, and extends Kubernetes version support to v1.35. It also completes the removal of the Tempo tracing application, includes ArgoCD sync optimizations, and delivers a range of stability and bug fixes.
This release focuses on significant improvements to the deployment process, removal of deprecated components, and enhanced stability. Key highlights include the replacement of the install job with apl-operator, removal of several deprecated monitoring and maintenance tools, and numerous fixes to improve upgrade reliability and ArgoCD operations.
This release focuses on three major areas: infrastructure modernization, AI/ML building blocks (Kserve), and critical bug fixes. The infrastructure updates primarily address Bitnami's breaking changes by migrating to official images and Helm charts.
This release includes multiple application upgrades across core platform components and delivers key fixes including improved platform operator update sequencing and team resource cleanup on deletion. Additionally, a few core applications have been deprecated.
This release focuses on usability enhancements for the Team Network Policy page, adds the new Kubeflow Pipelines app, and updates Prometheus rules for CloudNativePG. The CloudNativePG backup process has been migrated to a plugin for better resource control, with an option to use the plugin selectively. Additionally, dependencies like Sealed Secrets and Metrics Server have been upgraded for improved security and compatibility.
This release focuses on setting the default storage class to "Delete" for new LKE clusters to prevent persistent volume accumulation and quota issues. Existing installations remain unchanged during upgrades.
This release improves stability and observability across the platform, adding Prometheus monitoring for databases, refining connection settings, and enhancing installation reliability. It includes important fixes for Keycloak and Gitea, along with infrastructure upgrades like Helm and kube-prometheus-stack updates, plus multiple dependency bumps for improved performance and security.
App Platform for LKE has reached GA and is now available to all customers. App Platform can be deployed on non-enterprise LKE clusters (LKE Enterprise support is coming soon) and functions as a pre-built Kubernetes developer platform. It is intended to accelerate your platform development so you can focus on building your application. For more details on the launch, read our blog post. To learn more about App Platform and how to use it, review our documentation.
