Syself Product Update - July 30th 2024
We want to update you about the latest release of our product, which brings new features and improvements, and give you some tips on how to improve your operations.
Since the introduction of the new generation of Intel servers (CX line) at Hetzner, we have been experiencing problems with server availability.
As there was no official estimate for when this would be stabilised, we decided to take matters into our own hands and improve the internal logic of our platform to better handle this type of unavailability.
So the main theme for this release was stability. We focused on making our product more stable and reliable than ever, and made some quality of life changes. This is in preparation for a round of new features we plan to introduce in future releases.
Are you ready to take Kubernetes to the next level? Here's what's new:
?? Kubernetes 1.30 is now supported
Our new clusterstacks support Kubernetes 1.30! We've also released this update for 1.27, 1.28 and 1.29 for maximum update flexibility.
Please note that the Kubernetes team will no longer be releasing updates for the 1.27 minor version, so this is also our last update for that version. If you are still running 1.27, please see our docs for an upgrade guide.
?? Cluster API Provider Hetzner updates
In addition to the aforementioned solution for Hetzner's limited server availability, our new CAPH release comes with a number of improvements and new features:
As with the cluster stacks, the theme for this CAPH release is stability. Maybe we will reach general availability soon?
