Our [upcoming release](https://docs.rafay.co/releasenotes/preview/upcoming/) update will add support for a number of new features and enhancements. This blog is focused on the upcoming support for Upstream Kubernetes on nodes based on [Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) v10.0](https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/red_hat_enterprise_linux/10/html/10.0_release_notes/index). Both new cluster provisioning and in-place upgrades of Kubernetes clusters will be supported for lifecycle management.

#### New Cluster Provisioning

Users of the Rafay platform can provision upstream Kubernetes clusters on Red Hat Enterprise Linux v10 based nodes. Shown below is a screenshot.

Clicking on a node in the cluster dashboard will provide additional details about the Kubernetes version as well.

```javascript
kubectl get nodes -o wide
NAME                                          STATUS   ROLES           AGE   VERSION   INTERNAL-IP     EXTERNAL-IP   OS-IMAGE                                   KERNEL-VERSION                 CONTAINER-RUNTIME
