The release includes the following platform/manifests/security changes:
- Kubernetes 1.27 - 1.29 support, but 1.30+ should work as well. So administrators can run it on supported and secure Kubernetes clusters.
- Kustomize 5.2.1+ support with way less warnings, since we modernized most manifests. So platform engineers have a modern and supported installation tool chain.
- Oauth2-proxy replaces oidc-authservice, which brings improved token based authentication. ML engineers can now use tokens instead of insecure passwords for automation of Kubeflow from e.g. GitHub actions.
- Network policies are enabled for the Kubeflow core services as a second layer of defense before Istio authorization policies. This gives administrators a better network overview and segmentation while also enforcing common enterprise security guidelines.
- The Documentation has been overhauled. It now contains guidelines for upgrading and extending the Kubeflow Platform for administrators and enables new users to have a basic installation in a few minutes on their Laptop.
- Automatic CVE scanning with Trivy on the master branch is relevant for DevSecOps and enterprise security guidelines
- We have updated the third-party components to provide integration with the larger ML ecosystem. E.g. ray is heavily used to train LLMs
- Bentoml 1.2.28 and 1.1.21
- Seldon 1.18.1
- Ray 2.23 and Kuberay 1.1.1
- Update of the common components such that we support the latest Kubernetes versions and security patches for platform engineers.
- Istio 1.22.1
- Dex 2.39.1
- Cert-manager 1.14.5
- Knative 1.12.4
We also updated the following components:
- Kubeflow Pipelines 2.2.0, which includes Argo Workflows and Tekton integration
- Katib v0.17.0
- Training Operator v1.8.0
- KServe 0.13.0
- Workspaces(Notebooks) + Centraldashboard 1.9.0
