- API validation relaxed allowing Indexed Jobs to be scaled up/down by changing parallelism and completions in tandem, such that parallelism == completions.

- Fixed panic in Job controller when `podRecreationPolicy: Failed` is used, and the number of terminating pods exceeds parallelism. ([#121147](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/121147), [@kannon92](https://github.com/kannon92))

- Failed pods associated with a job with `parallelism = 1` are recreated by the job controller honoring exponential backoff delay again. However, for jobs with `parallelism > 1`, pods might be created without exponential backoff delay.

### Cluster Federation

#### [alpha] Federated Jobs

Federated Jobs that are automatically deployed to multiple clusters
are now supported. Cluster selection and weighting determine how Job
parallelism and completions are spread across clusters. Federated Job
status reflects the aggregate status across all underlying cluster
jobs.
