- Fix: set nil cache entry based on old cache ([#87592](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/87592), [@aramase](https://github.com/aramase)) [SIG Cloud Provider]

- The in-tree cloud provider for AWS (and the EBS storage plugin) has now been removed. Please use the external cloud provider and CSI driver from https://github.com/kubernetes/cloud-provider-aws instead. ([#115838](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/115838), [@torredil](https://github.com/torredil)) [SIG API Machinery,...

SIG-VMware development was primarily focused on fixing bugs for the in-tree cloud provider, starting the development of the external cloud provider and taking ownership of the cluster-api provider for vSphere.

In-tree cloud provider bug fixes and improvements included:
- Adding initial Zones support to the provider using vSphere Tags
- Improving the testing harness for the cloud provider by introducing vcsim for automated testing

### Step 1: Ensure minimum requirements are met

MinIO requires Kafka version 0.10 or 0.9. Internally MinIO uses the [Shopify/sarama](https://github.com/Shopify/sarama/) library and so has the same version compatibility as provided by this library.

### Step 2: Add Kafka endpoint to MinIO
