### Structured Logging in Kubelet

It is likely that `v1alpha2` will be removed in one of the future Kubernetes releases to be able to develop `v1`.

### Structured logging graduate to Beta

Structured logging reached its Beta milestone. Most log messages from kubelet and kube-scheduler have been converted. Users are encouraged to try out JSON output or parsing of the structured text format and provide feedback on possible solutions for the open issues, such as handling of multi-line strings in log values.

- Migrate `proxy/ipvs/proxier.go` logs to structured logging. ([#97796](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/97796), [@JornShen](https://github.com/JornShen))
- Migrate `staging/src/k8s.io/apiserver/pkg/registry` logs to structured logging. ([#98287](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/98287), [@lala123912](https://github.com/lala123912))

   ([#123508](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/123508), [@saschagrunert](https://github.com/saschagrunert))
- Dynamic Resource Allocation: DRA drivers can now use "structured parameters" to let the scheduler handle claim allocation.

### Source Code

- Disallow `k8s.io` and `kubernetes.io` namespaced extra key in structured authentication configuration. ([#126553](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/126553), [@aramase](https://github.com/aramase)) [SIG Auth]
