We have added support for Ubuntu 24.04 and Ubuntu 24.04 Pro in the node AMI family for EKS node groups. These new AMI options provide access to the latest Ubuntu LTS release with enhanced features and security updates.


Cluster Override

Addon Override Matching by Version

Benefit

Enables more precise targeting of addon in cluster overrides by allowing matching based on both addon name and version, providing greater control over addon configurations.

We have enhanced the Cluster override for add ons to support version level matching. Overrides can now be matched not only by addon name but also by addon version. When a version is specified, the system matches overrides using both the addon name and version. If no version is specified, matching is performed using the addon name only.

Blueprints

Support for Kustomize Add-ons

Benefit

Simplifies management and deployment of by leveraging native Kustomize capabilities.

Support is being added for Kustomize with this enhancement. Kustomize is a natively supported Kubernetes tool that allows users to customize raw, template-free YAML files for multiple environments.

With this update, a new add-on type called “Kustomize”, in addition to the existing Helm 3 and K8s YAML options is being made available. The workflow remains consistent with the current experience for Helm 3 and YAML-based add-ons, providing users with a familiar and unified deployment model.

Ability to Pull Artifacts from Remote URLs

Benefit

Provides more flexibility and reduces operational overhead by enabling direct deployment of Kubernetes manifests from external sources.

In some cases, customers want to deploy Kubernetes manifests directly from the internet without manually downloading and managing them in internal repositories. To support this, a new option — “Pull files from URL” — is being introduced.

In addition to the existing “Upload files manually” and “Pull files from repository” options, users can now specify a remote URL to automatically fetch and deploy artifacts, streamlining the workflow and minimizing manual steps.

Upstream Kubernetes for Bare Metal and VMs

Automated Binary Cleanup on Cluster and Node Deletion

Benefit

Ensures complete cleanup of binaries and libraries installed during cluster provisioning, preventing leftover artifacts and reducing manual cleanup efforts.

When deleting a cluster or node, the platform now automatically runs conjurer -d to remove all binaries and libraries that were installed during cluster bring-up or conjurer execution. This enhancement ensures:

This automated cleanup process helps maintain clean infrastructure and prevents accumulation of leftover binaries and libraries on nodes.
