- Following metrics from kubelet are now marked as with the ALPHA stability level:
  `node_cpu_usage_seconds_total`

- The job controller back-off logic is now decoupled from workqueue. In case of parallelism > 1, if there are multiple new failures in a reconciliation cycle, all the failures are taken into account to compute the back-off. Previously, the back-off kicked in for all types of failures; with this change, only pod failures are taken into account. If the back-off limits exceeds, the job is marked as failed immediately; before this change, the job...

- Changed how KMS v2 encryption at rest can generate data encryption keys. When you enable the `KMSv2KDF` feature gate (off by default), KMS v2 uses a key derivation function to generate single use data...

* Advanced auditing is the default auditing mechanism at `v1beta1`. The new version introduces the following changes:

  * The `--audit-policy-file` option is required if the `AdvancedAuditing` feature is not explicitly turned off (`--feature-gates=AdvancedAuditing=false`) on the API server.
  * The audit log file defaults to JSON encoding when using the advanced auditing feature gate.

* The formerly publicly-available cAdvisor web UI that the kubelet ran on port 4194 by default is now turned off by default. The flag configuring what port to run this UI on `--cadvisor-port` was deprecated in v1.10. Now the default is `--cadvisor-port=0`, in other words, to not run the web server. If you still need to run cAdvisor, the recommended way to run...
