v1.34: PSI Metrics for Graduates to Beta

Kubernetes v1.34 bumpsPressure Stall Information (PSI) metricsto Beta. Now kubelets expose kernel-level resource pressure—CPU, memory, and I/O—through the Summary API and Prometheus. Instead of just tracking how much a resource gets used, PSI shows how often workloads get throttled or blocked. That .. read more

Reduce Cloud Cross-Zone Data Transfer Costs with Kubernetes 1.33 trafficDistribution

Kubernetes 1.33 drops a new traffic policy that addszone-local routing. With it, kube-proxy now prefers endpoints in the same availability zone. Translation: less cross-AZ chatter, fewer surprise charges. On AWS, that can chop the usual $0.02/GB cross-AZ fee by up to 85%—especially in EKS clusters j.. read more
