AI has really changed the game around software development. More people are leveraging AI than ever to contribute patches to projects they use. To me, this is a good thing as more folks will contribute patches rather than fork or not fix them. The main problem is that AI has made generating code fast but there has been very little improvement in maintaining code bases. In this post, we will highlight the ways the Kubernetes community is adapting to the world of AI assisted coding. The first ste…

Headlamp is an open-source, extensible Kubernetes SIG UI project designed to let you explore, manage, and debug cluster resources directly from a browser. Cluster API (CAPI) is a Kubernetes sub-project that brings declarative, Kubernetes-style APIs to cluster lifecycle management. It lets platform teams provision, upgrade, and manage the lifecycle of Kubernetes clusters using standard Kubernetes objects stored and reconciled in a management cluster. Managing Cluster API resources has historical…

Volcano is a cloud native batch scheduler for Kubernetes, built for high-performance computing, AI/ML, and other batch workloads. Headlamp is an extensible Kubernetes web UI. With its plugin system, Headlamp can surface APIs and workflows beyond the built-in Kubernetes resources. The Volcano plugin brings core Volcano resources into Headlamp so you can inspect workload state, queue behavior, and gang scheduling details in one place. Kubernetes was originally designed around long-running service…

Headlamp is an open-source, extensible Kubernetes SIG UI project designed to let you explore, manage, and debug cluster resources. Knative brings serverless workloads to Kubernetes, handling traffic routing, autoscaling, and revision management so teams can deploy and iterate without fighting infrastructure. But operating Knative workloads day-to-day can be difficult, there's still a lot of jumping between the kn CLI, kubectl, and the Kubernetes UI to get a full picture of what's running. We bu…

The rising popularity of AI, Edge, and Telecommunications workloads on Kubernetes has led to new requirements for hardware management. We now need hardware specification beyond CPU time and memory allocations. This includes allocating GPUs, TPUs, network interfaces, and other hardware, sometimes after pod start and occasionally through time-sharing. Efficiently managing this specialized hardware is the mission of the Device Management Working Group. Their cornerstone project, Dynamic Resource A…

In our ongoing SIG Spotlight series, we shine a light on the groups that keep the Kubernetes project moving forward. This time, we catch up with SIG Storage, the group responsible for persistent data, volume management, and the interfaces that connect Kubernetes workloads to the storage systems beneath them. We spoke with Xing Yang, Co-Chair of SIG Storage and Software Engineer at VMware by Broadcom, about the SIG's history, the features shipping in recent Kubernetes releases, and where storage…

For many people, Kubernetes Dashboard was their first window into Kubernetes. It offered a simple visual way to see what was running in a cluster, inspect resources, and build confidence without relying on the command line. For years, it helped developers, students, and operators make sense of Kubernetes, and it served as an important onramp into the ecosystem. The Kubernetes Dashboard project has now been archived. We deeply respect the work the team did and the role Dashboard played in making…

The Kubernetes project relies on transparency to empower cluster administrators and security researchers. One important way we do that is by publishing CVE records into the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures database. As part of our ongoing effort to mature the official Kubernetes CVE Feed, we have identified some discrepancies. CVE records for a few older, unfixed issues incorrectly include a fixed version field. The Kubernetes Security Response Committee (SRC) will correct the affected CVE …

This article was originally published with the wrong date. It was later republished, dated the 15th of May 2026. Kubernetes v1.36 introduces a new alpha counter metric route_controller_route_sync_total to the Cloud Controller Manager (CCM) route controller implementation at k8s.io/cloud-provider. This metric increments each time routes are synced with the cloud provider. A/B testing watch-based route reconciliationThis metric was added to help operators validate the CloudControllerManagerWatchB…
