* The `autoscaling/v2alpha1` API is now at `autoscaling/v2beta1`. However, the form of the API remains unchanged. Migrate the `HorizontalPodAutoscaler` resources to `autoscaling/v2beta1` to persist the `HorizontalPodAutoscaler` changes introduced in `autoscaling/v2alpha1`. The Horizontal Pod Autoscaler changes include support for status conditions, and autoscaling on memory and custom metrics.

### HorizontalPodAutoscaler v2 graduates to GA

Version 2 of the HorizontalPodAutoscaler API graduates to stable in the 1.23 release. The HorizontalPodAutoscaler `autoscaling/v2beta2` API is deprecated in favor of the new `autoscaling/v2` API, which the Kubernetes project recommends for all use cases.

This release does *not* deprecate the v1 HorizontalPodAutoscaler API.

* Introduces status conditions to the HorizontalPodAutoscaler in autoscaling/v2alpha1, indicating the current status of a given HorizontalPodAutoscaler, and why it is or is not scaling. ([#46550](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/46550), [@DirectXMan12](https://github.com/DirectXMan12))

### **Autoscaling**

*   HorizontalPodAutoscaler objects now properly functions on scalable resources in any API group. Fixed by adding a polymorphic scale client. ([#53743](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/53743),[ @DirectXMan12](https://github.com/DirectXMan12))

- Added a new `tolerance` field to HorizontalPodAutoscaler, overriding the cluster-wide default. Enabled via the HPAConfigurableTolerance alpha feature gate.

- Fix scheduler crash when removing node before its pods ([#89908](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/89908), [@alculquicondor](https://github.com/alculquicondor)) [SIG Scheduling]
- Fixes conversion error for HorizontalPodAutoscaler objects with invalid annotations ([#89965](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/89965), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt)) [SIG Autoscaling]
