## What’s New (Major Themes)

### Kubernetes Topology Manager Moves to Beta - Align Up!

### SIG Cloud Provider

- The AnyVolumeDataSource feature is now beta, and the feature gate is enabled by default. In order to provide user feedback on PVCs with data sources, deployers must install the VolumePopulators CRD and the data-source-validator controller. ([#108736](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/108736), [@bswartz](https://github.com/bswartz))

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.

### Simplified Multi-point plugin configuration for scheduler

### IPv4/IPv6 run

Since these new workflows don’t require any new cluster features, they’re available for experimentation with your existing clusters via `kubectl alpha debug`. We’d love to hear your feedback on debugging with `kubectl`. Reach us by opening an issue, visiting [#sig-cli](https://kubernetes.slack.com/messages/sig-cli) or commenting on enhancement [#1441](https://features.k8s.io/1441).
