v1.5.0

What's New

Support Kubernetes up to V1.28

“k8s.io/xxx” and all its related dependencies are upgraded to version “v0.28.9”, for ensuring OpenYurt is compatible with Kubernetes v1.28 version. This compatibility has been confirmed by an end-to-end (E2E) test where we started a Kubernetes v1.28 cluster using KinD and deployed the latest components of OpenYurt. At the same time, all the key components of OpenYurt, such as yurt-manager and yurthub, are deployed on the Kubernetes cluster via Helm to ensure that the Helm charts provided by the OpenYurt community can run stably in the production environment.

Reduce cloud-edge traffic spike during rapid node additions

NodePool resource is essential for managing groups of nodes within OpenYurt clusters, as it records details of all nodes in the collective through the NodePool.status.nodes field. YurtHub relies on this information to identify endpoints within the same NodePool, thereby enabling pool-level service topology functionality. However, when a large NodePool—potentially comprising thousands of nodes—experiences swift expansion, such as the integration of hundreds of edge nodes within a mere minute, the surge in cloud-to-edge network traffic can be significant. In this release, a new type of resource called NodeBucket has been introduced. It provides a scalable and streamlined method for managing extensive NodePool, significantly reducing the impact on cloud-edge traffic during periods of rapid node growth, and ensuring the stability of the clusters is maintained.

Upgrade YurtAppSet to v1beta1 version

YurtAppSet v1beta1 is introduced to facilitate the management of multi-region workloads. Users can use YurtAppSet to distribute the same WorkloadTemplate (Deployment/Statefulset) to different nodepools by a label selector NodePoolSelector or nodepool name slice (Pools). Users can also customize the configuration of workloads in different node pools through WorkloadTweaks.
In this release, we have combined the functionality from the three old crds (YurtAppSet v1alpha1, YurtAppDaemon and YurtAppOverrider) in yurtappset v1beta1. We recommend to use this in favor of the old ones.

Improve transparent management mechanism for control traffic from edge to cloud

The current transparent management mechanism for cloud-edge control traffic has certain limitations and cannot effectively support direct requests to the default/kubernetes service. In this release, a new transparent management mechanism for cloud-edge control traffic, aimed at enabling pods using InClusterConfig or the default/kubernetes service name to access the kube-apiserver via YurtHub without needing to be aware of the details of the public network connection between the cloud and edge.

Separate clients for yurt-manager component

Yurt-manager is an important component in cloud environment for OpenYurt which holds multiple controllers and webhooks. Those controllers and webhooks shared one client and one set of RBAC (yurt-manager-role/yurt-manager-role-binding/yurt-manager-sa) which grew bigger as we add more function into yurt-manager. This mechanism makes a controller has access it shouldn't has. and it's difficult to find out the request is from which controller from the audit logs. In the latest release, we restrict each controller/webhook to only the permissions it may use and separate RBAC and UA for different controllers and webhooks.

Enhancement to Yurthub's Autonomy capabilities

New autonomy condition have been added to node conditions so that yurthub can report autonomy status of node in real time at each nodeStatusUpdateFrequency. This condition allows for accurate determination of each node's autonomy status. In addition, an error key mechanism has been introduced to log cache failure keys along with their corresponding fault reasons. The error keys are persisted using the AOF (Append-Only File) method, ensuring that the autonomy state is recovered even after a reboot and preventing the system from entering a pseudo-autonomous state. These enhancements also facilitate easier troubleshooting when autonomy issues arise.
