- Enable the "Retriable and non-retriable pod failures for jobs" feature into beta. ([#113360](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/113360), [@mimowo](https://github.com/mimowo))

- Fix: add azure disk migration support for CSINode ([#88014](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/88014), [@andyzhangx](https://github.com/andyzhangx)) [SIG Cloud Provider and Storage]
- Fix: add non-retriable errors in azure clients ([#87941](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/87941), [@andyzhangx](https://github.com/andyzhangx)) [SIG Cloud Provider]

- Make the etcd client (used by the API server) retry certain types of errors. The full list of retriable (codes.Unavailable) errors can be found at https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/blob/main/api/v3rpc/rpctypes/error.go#L72 ([#105069](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/105069), [@p0lyn0mial](https://github.com/p0lyn0mial))

* kubeadm - Increase the manifest upgrade timeout to make upgrades more reliable. ([#65029](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/65029), [@detiber](https://github.com/detiber))

    *   reflector_short_watches_total
    *   reflector_watch_duration_seconds
    *   reflector_watches_total
    * While this is a backwards-incompatible change, it would have been impossible to setup reliable monitoring around these metrics since the labels were not stable.

### SIG Multi-cluster (formerly known as SIG Federation)

[SIG Multi-cluster][] is responsible for infrastructure that supports
the efficient and reliable management of multiple Kubernetes clusters,
and applications that run in and across multiple clusters.

For the 1.8 release, SIG Multicluster focussed on expanding the set of

    *   reflector_short_watches_total
    *   reflector_watch_duration_seconds
    *   reflector_watches_total
    * While this is a backwards-incompatible change, it would have been impossible to setup reliable monitoring around these metrics since the labels were not stable. 

#### Continuous Improvement
- Project sustainability is not just about features. Many SIGs have been working on  improving test coverage, ensuring the basics stay reliable, and stability of the core feature set and working on maturing existing features and cleaning up the backlog.

#### Extensibility

* Updates Cinder AttachDisk operation to be more reliable by delegating Detaches to volume manager. ([#50042](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/50042), [@jingxu97](https://github.com/jingxu97))
