- **[beta]** [Node affinity/anti-affinity](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/assign-pod-node/) and **[beta]** [pod affinity/anti-affinity](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/assign-pod-node/). Node affinity/anti-affinity allow you to specify rules for restricting which node(s) a pod can schedule onto, based on the labels on the node. Pod affinity/anti-affinity allow you to specify rules for spreading and packing pods relative...

### SIG-scheduling

SIG Scheduling development efforts have been primarily focused on improving performance and reliability of the scheduler.
- Performance of the inter-pod affinity/anti-affinity feature is improved over 100X via algorithmic optimization.

* Bugfix for erroneous upgrade needed messaging in kubernetes worker charm. ([#60873](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/60873), [@wwwtyro](https://github.com/wwwtyro))
* Fix inter-pod anti-affinity check to consider a pod a match when all the anti-affinity terms match. ([#62715](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/62715), [@bsalamat](https://github.com/bsalamat))

### Scheduling

* Affinity in annotations alpha feature is no longer supported in 1.8. Anyone upgrading from 1.7 with AffinityInAnnotation feature enabled must ensure pods (specifically with pod anti-affinity PreferredDuringSchedulingIgnoredDuringExecution) with empty TopologyKey fields must be removed before upgrading to 1.8.
