Nov 19, 2021 Highlights

Apps

AWS LB Controller is now available! Find it in the managed apps catalog.

oauth2-proxy version v7.2.0 is now available, as well as support for configuring extra arguments (per provider, or for all providers).

User interfaces

In the Web UI, we now guide users to create a node pool after cluster creation.

On AWS in the node pool creation UI - spot instances are now disabled by default and can be enabled by toggling “Enable spot instances” in the node pool creation form.

Added --self-contained flag to kubectl-gs login command for workload clusters to allow the output of standalone kubeconfig file. This file can be passed on to other users without management cluster access.

You can now specify a Service Account token when logging in, to help automation use cases.

Documentation

Added documentation on how to scale down workload clusters and silence alerts for a specified period of time. This can be used, for example, to limit workload clusters costs.
