As part of our regular upgrade cycle, the following Kubernetes cluster components have been updated. And it’s a big one! We’ve already rolled these out to all non-production clusters.

More …We are preparing to upgrade our platforms to Kubernetes 1.22, which drops support for many deprecated API versions! This is the final call to make sure you’ve updated your manifests, Helm charts (*), etc. to make use of the newest APIs (mainly Ingress, but some others too). Make sure to check out the deprecated API migration guide for more info. Below you will find more details on some of the most common deprecated resources used by our customers.
More …For a long time now, we’ve been using the AWS Node Termination Handler for catching Spot instance interruption notices, allowing Kubernetes to respond appropriately by draining these (spot) nodes before they are terminated. You may have noticed this behavior via the “:construction: Instance interruption” notices in the Slack alerts.
More …You can now create GP3 Persistent Volumes through the gp3 and gp3-encrypted Storage Classes. This is in addition to the previously available GP2 (gp2, gp2-encrypted) and EFS (efs) volumes.
We’ve completely refactored how we manage our monitoring components, like Prometheus, Grafana and many exporters and alerts. For you, the platform user, nothing will change although there is some disruption in Grafana and Prometheus expected during rollout.
More …It has come to our attention that many of our 24/7 escalation phone numbers could only receive calls from domestic numbers. We have generated new telepohone numbers, so make sure to verify your new number in your repo’s README!

More …We’d like to inform you that we’re renaming and (re-tagging) many network related resources, like the VPC name, subnet names, route tables, etc. Normally this shouldn’t have any impact for you, however if you rely on the VPC name for anything, you will need to update this workload. (*)
