## What’s New (Major Themes)

### Cloud Provider Labels reach General Availability

Added as a beta feature way back in v1.2, v1.17 sees the general availability of cloud provider labels.

### Volume Snapshot Moves to Beta

   * an element in the set. For example, {@code contains} returns {@code false} when passed an
   * object that equals a set member, but isn't the same instance. This behavior is similar to the
   * way {@code IdentityHashMap} handles key lookups.

  public static <E extends @Nullable Object> Set<E> newIdentityHashSet() {

  /**
   * An iterator that performs a lazy N-way merge, calculating the next value each time the iterator
   * is polled. This amortizes the sorting cost over the iteration and requires less memory than
   * sorting all elements at once.
   *

   * comparison to determine equality of keys. Its {@link Cache#asMap} view will therefore
   * technically violate the {@link Map} specification (in the same way that {@link IdentityHashMap}

   * <p>Entries with keys that have been garbage collected may be counted in {@link Cache#size}, but

    assertThrows(IllegalArgumentException.class, () -> Maps.subMap(map, Range.closed(4, 8)));

    // These results are all incorrect, but there's no way (short of iterating over the result)
    // to verify that with an arbitrary ordering or comparator.
    assertEquals(ImmutableSortedMap.of(2, 0, 4, 0), Maps.subMap(map, Range.atLeast(4)));

    Mocking sophisticated classes like `OkHttpClient` is fragile and you
    shouldn’t do it. But if that’s how you want to live your life we won’t stand
    in your way!


## Version 3.0.1

_2016-01-14_

 *  Rollback OSGi support. This was causing library jars to include more classes
    than expected, which interfered with Gradle builds.


## Version 3.0.0

This release also contains a number of bug fixes to the feature set. Aspiring plugin authors can look at [sample-exec-plugin](https://github.com/ankeesler/sample-exec-plugin) as a way to get started.

Related to this topic, the in-tree Azure and GCP authentication plugins have been [deprecated](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/102181) in favor of out-of-tree implementations.
