The main highlight of this release is actually outside Kubernetes. The image registry has moved to a distributed system that will be closer to your datacenter, āno matterā what cloud provider you use. There are also some security highlights. Seccomp by default in kubelet is now stable, and features such as the new account tokens and the new rules for the admission control continue evolving. Also, new additions like VolumeGroupSnapshot will be a great addition to forensic investigators, even if they were thought out with disaster recovery in mind. In this version you have the ability to update a Podās resources without restarting it, improvements on how internal IPs are assigned to services, and new kubectl subcommands via plugins. And many other new featuresā¦
