Announcing Support for Kubernetes v1.34
We are pleased to announce that Avisi Cloud now supports Kubernetes v1.34, themed “Of Wind & Will.” This version is available for both new and existing clusters via the Console. We recommend upgrading to benefit from the latest stability, security, and usability improvements.
Please see our documentation for guidance on planning and performing your cluster upgrade.
Key New Features
-
Dynamic Resource Allocation (DRA) core is GA The
resource.k8s.io/v1
APIs graduate to Stable, enabling device‑aware scheduling via ResourceClaims and related types. DRA lets workloads request and bind to specialized hardware or external resources in a structured, declarative way. -
Projected ServiceAccount tokens for kubelet image credential providers (Beta) Kubelet credential providers can use short‑lived, audience‑bound ServiceAccount tokens for private image pulls. This removes long‑lived Secrets on nodes, improves security, and simplifies credential management.
-
KYAML support for kubectl (Alpha) A new, safer YAML dialect designed for Kubernetes is available as an opt‑in kubectl output format. It aims to reduce ambiguity in serialization while remaining compatible with existing YAML tooling.
-
Job replacement policy (Stable) Jobs can delay creating replacement Pods until a terminating Pod has fully failed (
.spec.podReplacementPolicy: Failed
). This reduces resource contention and avoids unnecessary autoscaler activity in constrained clusters. -
Storage improvements (Stable) Recovery from volume expansion failure and
VolumeAttributesClass
for modifying volume parameters both reach Stable, improving day‑2 operations for CSI‑backed storage.
