### Node

SIG Node iterated on the ability to support more workloads with better performance and improved reliability.  Alpha features were improved around hardware accelerator support, device plugins enablement, and cpu pinning policies to enable us to graduate these features to beta in a future release.  In addition, a number of reliability and performance enhancements were made across the node to help operators in production.

### OpenStack

- Improved reboot event reporting. The kubelet will only emit one reboot Event when a server-level reboot 

- Fix job controller syncs: In case of conflicts, ensure that the sync happens with the most up to date information. Improves reliability of JobTrackingWithFinalizers. ([#105214](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/105214), [@alculquicondor](https://github.com/alculquicondor))

SIG Network is moving IPv6 to Beta in Kubernetes 1.18, after incrementing significantly the test coverage with new CI jobs.

NodeLocal DNSCache is an add-on that runs a dnsCache pod as a daemonset to improve clusterDNS performance and reliability. The feature has been in Alpha since 1.13 release. The SIG Network is announcing the GA graduation of Node Local DNSCache [#1351](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/pull/1351)
