### Removal of several beta Kubernetes APIs

- Promoted the `JobManagedBy` feature to general availability. The `JobManagedBy` feature gate was locked to `true` and will be removed in a future Kubernetes release. ([#135080](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/135080), [@dejanzele](https://github.com/dejanzele)) [SIG API Machinery, Apps and...

5_XwZm8Q/edit?usp=sharing)). Bug fixes across bare metal tooling and production-ready user stories, such as the high availability use cases have been given priority for 1.15.

kubeadm, the cluster lifecycle building block, continues to receive features and stability work required for bootstrapping production clusters efficiently. kubeadm has promoted high availability (HA) capability to beta, allowing users to use the familiar `kubeadm init` and `kubeadm join` commands to [configure and...

- **Admission webhooks:** Admission webhooks are in widespread use as a Kubernetes extensibility mechanism and have been available in beta since the 1.9 release. The 1.16 release marks the graduation of admission webhooks to general availability (GA).

  the following annotation - `scheduler.alpha.kubernetes.io/critical-pod`
  - This feature should be used in conjunction with the
    [rescheduler](https://kubernetes.io/docs/admin/rescheduler/) to guarantee
    resource availability for critical system pods.
* **[alpha]** `--experimental-nvidia-gpus` flag is replaced by `Accelerators` alpha
  feature gate along with addition of support for multiple Nvidia GPUs.

- Graduated the `ReadWriteOncePod` feature gate to `GA`. ([#121077](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/121077), [@chrishenzie](https://github.com/chrishenzie))
- Graduated the following kubelet resource metrics to **general availability**:
  - `container_cpu_usage_seconds_total`
  - `container_memory_working_set_bytes`
  - `container_start_time_seconds`
  - `node_cpu_usage_seconds_total`
  - `node_memory_working_set_bytes`

- Graduated support for Container Device Interface (CDI) device IDs to general availability. The `DevicePluginCDIDevices` feature gate is now enabled unconditionally. ([#123315](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/123315), [@bart0sh](https://github.com/bart0sh)) [SIG Node]
