- The in-tree cloud provider for AWS (and the EBS storage plugin) has now been removed. Please use the external cloud provider and CSI driver from https://github.com/kubernetes/cloud-provider-aws instead. ([#115838](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/115838), [@torredil](https://github.com/torredil)) [SIG API Machinery,...

- The in-tree cloud provider for OpenStack (and the cinder volume provider) has been removed. Please use the external cloud provider and csi driver from [cloud-provider-openstack](https://github.com/kubernetes/cloud-provider-openstack) instead. ([#67782](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/67782), [@dims](https://github.com/dims))

- Fixing issue with Winkernel Proxier - ClusterIP Loadbalancers are missing if the ExternalTrafficPolicy is set to Local and the available endpoints are all remoteEndpoints.

- The in-tree cloud provider for vSphere has been deprecated and removed. Users are advised to utilize the external cloud provider and CSI driver available at https://github.com/kubernetes/cloud-provider-vsphere.

- Kubelet, when using cloud provider external, initializes temporary the node addresses using the --node-ip flag values if set, until the cloud provider overrides it. ([#121028](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/121028), [@aojea](https://github.com/aojea)) [SIG Cloud Provider and Node]

- Kubelet: The `--azure-container-registry-config` flag has been deprecated and will be removed in a future release, please use `--image-credential-provider-config` and `--image-credential-provider-bin-dir` to setup acr credential provider instead. ([#118596](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/118596), [@SataQiu](https://github.com/SataQiu)) [SIG Node]

- The `auto-detect` behavior of the kubelet's `--cloud-provider` flag is deprecated.

  - In version 1.8, the default value for the kubelet's `--cloud-provider` flag is `auto-detect`. Be aware that it works only on GCE, AWS and Azure.

  - In version 1.9, the default will be `""`, which means no built-in cloud provider extension will be enabled by default.

  - Enable an out-of-tree cloud provider with `--cloud-provider=external` in either version.
