# Kubernetes 1.24
**Authors**: [Kubernetes 1.24 Release Team](https://github.com/kubernetes/sig-release/blob/master/releases/release-1.24/release-team.md)
We are excited to announce the release of Kubernetes 1.24, the first release of 2022!
This release consists of 46 enhancements: fourteen enhancements have graduated to stable,
fifteen enhancements are moving to beta, and thirteen enhancements are entering alpha.
Also, two features have been deprecated, and two features have been removed.
## Major Themes
### Dockershim Removed from kubelet
After its deprecation in v1.20, the dockershim component has been removed from the kubelet in Kubernetes v1.24.
From v1.24 onwards, you will need to either use one of the other [supported runtimes](/docs/setup/production-environment/container-runtimes/) (such as containerd or CRI-O)
or use cri-dockerd if you are relying on Docker Engine as your container runtime.
For more information about ensuring your cluster is ready for this removal, please
see [this guide](/blog/2022/03/31/ready-for-dockershim-removal/).
### Beta APIs Off by Default
[New beta APIs will not be enabled in clusters by default](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/3136).
Existing beta APIs and new versions of existing beta APIs will continue to be enabled by default.
### Signing Release Artifacts
Release artifacts are [signed](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/3031) using [cosign](https://github.com/sigstore/cosign)
signatures,
and there is experimental support for [verifying image signatures](/docs/tasks/administer-cluster/verify-signed-images/).
Signing and verification of release artifacts is part of [increasing software supply chain security for the Kubernetes release process](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/3027).
### OpenAPI v3
Kubernetes 1.24 offers beta support for publishing its APIs in the [OpenAPI v3 format](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/2896).
### Storage Capacity and Volume Expansion Are Generally Available
[Storage capacity tracking](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/1472)
supports exposing currently available storage capacity via [CSIStorageCapacity objects](/docs/concepts/storage/storage-capacity/#api)
and enhances scheduling of pods that use CSI volumes with late binding.
[Volume expansion](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/284) adds support
for resizing existing persistent volumes.
### NonPreemptingPriority to Stable
This feature adds [a new option to PriorityClasses](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/902),
which can enable or disable pod preemption.
### Storage Plugin Migration
Work is underway to [migrate the internals of in-tree storage plugins](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/625) to call out to CSI Plugins
while maintaining the original API.
The [Azure Disk](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/1490)
and [OpenStack Cinder](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/1489) plugins
have both been migrated.
### gRPC Probes Graduate to Beta
With Kubernetes 1.24, the [gRPC probes functionality](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/2727)
has entered beta and is available by default. You can now [configure startup, liveness, and readiness probes](/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/configure-liveness-readiness-startup-probes/#configure-probes) for your gRPC app
natively within Kubernetes without exposing an HTTP endpoint or
using an extra executable.
### Kubelet Credential Provider Graduates to Beta
Originally released as Alpha in Kubernetes 1.20, the kubelet's support for
[image credential providers](/docs/tasks/kubelet-credential-provider/kubelet-credential-provider/)
has now graduated to Beta.
This allows the kubelet to dynamically retrieve credentials for a container image registry
using exec plugins rather than storing credentials on the node's filesystem.
### Contextual Logging in Alpha
Kubernetes 1.24 has introduced [contextual logging](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/3077)
that enables the caller of a function to control all aspects of logging (output formatting, verbosity, additional values, and names).
### Avoiding Collisions in IP allocation to Services
Kubernetes 1.24 introduces a new opt-in feature that allows you to
[soft-reserve a range for static IP address assignments](/docs/concepts/services-networking/service/#service-ip-static-sub-range)
to Services.
With the manual enablement of this feature, the cluster will prefer automatic assignment from
the pool of Service IP addresses, thereby reducing the risk of collision.
A Service `ClusterIP` can be assigned:
* dynamically, which means the cluster will automatically pick a free IP within the configured Service IP range.
* statically, which means the user will set one IP within the configured Service IP range.
Service `ClusterIP` are unique; hence, trying to create a Service with a `ClusterIP` that has already been allocated will return an error.
### Dynamic Kubelet Configuration is Removed from the Kubelet
After being deprecated in Kubernetes 1.22, Dynamic Kubelet Configuration has been removed from the kubelet. The feature will be removed from the API server in Kubernetes 1.26.
## CNI Version-Related Breaking Change
Before you upgrade to Kubernetes 1.24, please verify that you are using/upgrading to a container
runtime that has been tested to work correctly with this release.
For example, the following container runtimes are being prepared, or have already been prepared, for Kubernetes:
* containerd v1.6.4 and later, v1.5.11 and later
* CRI-O 1.24 and later
Service issues exist for pod CNI network setup and tear down in containerd
v1.6.0–v1.6.3 when the CNI plugins have not been upgraded and/or the CNI config
version is not declared in the CNI config files. The containerd team reports, "these issues are resolved in containerd v1.6.4."
With containerd v1.6.0–v1.6.3, if you do not upgrade the CNI plugins and/or
declare the CNI config version, you might encounter the following "Incompatible
CNI versions" or "Failed to destroy network for sandbox" error conditions.
## Other Updates
### Graduations to Stable
This release saw fourteen enhancements promoted to stable:
* [Container Storage Interface (CSI) Volume Expansion](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/284)
* [Pod Overhead](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/688): Account for resources tied to the pod sandbox but not specific containers.

### Release Team
This release would not have been possible without the combined efforts of committed individuals
comprising the Kubernetes 1.24 release team. This team came together to deliver all of the components
that go into each Kubernetes release, including code, documentation, release notes, and more.
Special thanks to James Laverack, our release lead, for guiding us through a successful release cycle,
and to all of the release team members for the time and effort they put in to deliver the v1.24
release for the Kubernetes community.
### Release Theme and Logo
**Kubernetes 1.24: Stargazer**
{{< figure src="/images/blog/2022-05-03-kubernetes-release-1.24/kubernetes-1.24.png" alt="" class="release-logo" >}}
The theme for Kubernetes 1.24 is _Stargazer_.
Generations of people have looked to the stars in awe and wonder, from ancient astronomers to the
scientists who built the James Webb Space Telescope. The stars have inspired us, set our imagination
alight, and guided us through long nights on difficult seas.
With this release we gaze upwards, to what is possible when our community comes together. Kubernetes
is the work of hundreds of contributors across the globe and thousands of end-users supporting
applications that serve millions. Every one is a star in our sky, helping us chart our course.
The release logo is made by [Britnee Laverack](https://www.instagram.com/artsyfie/), and depicts a telescope set upon starry skies and the
[Pleiades](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pleiades), often known in mythology as the “Seven Sisters”. The number seven is especially auspicious
for the Kubernetes project, and is a reference back to our original “Project Seven” name.
This release of Kubernetes is named for those that would look towards the night sky and wonder — for
all the stargazers out there. ✨
