<p>Cluster API (CAPI) is an open-source project that aims to simplify the provisioning and management of multiple Kubernetes clusters by providing declarative APIs and supporting tools. It has become a fundamental component within the systems of leading technology companies, including AWS, VMware, Azure, and Google.</p><p>However, it is currently limited in supporting automatic upgrades for the Kubernetes clusters it manages. Given the criticality of keeping Kubernetes clusters up-to-date with the latest features and improvements, and maintaining security, stability, performance, community support, and compatibility, this is a significant gap.</p><p>In this presentation, we will address the following topics:</p><ul><li><p>Management of Kubernetes Clusters via Cluster API: We will explore the methodologies for managing Kubernetes clusters using Cluster API.</p></li></ul><ul><li><p>Integration of Automatic Upgrade Strategies: We will discuss integrating automatic upgrade strategies such as RollingUpgrade and BlueGreenUpgrade with CAPI for our customers. These strategies are crucial in ensuring high availability and stability and rollback solutions for Kubernetes clusters managed by Cluster API.</p></li></ul><ul><li><p>Management of Provider-Specific Component Upgrades: We will explain how to manage upgrades of provider-specific components and provide recommendations to users to minimize disruptions during the upgrade process.</p></li></ul>
