  - With the release of the CSI 1.0 API, support for CSI drivers using 0.3 and older releases of the CSI API is deprecated, and is planned to be removed in Kubernetes v1.15. CSI drivers should be updated to support the CSI 1.0 API, and deployed in the new kubelet plugin registration directory (`{kubelet_root_dir}/plugins_registry/`) once all nodes in the cluster are at 1.13 or higher ([#71020](https://gith...

SIG Storage is also introducing the following new storage features as alpha in Kubernetes 1.18:
- Windows CSI Support: Enabling containerized CSI node plugins in Windows via new [CSIProxy](https://github.com/kubernetes-csi/csi-proxy)

  as it requires installation of AzureFile CSI Driver. Users should enable CSIMigration and
  CSIMigrationAzureFile features and install the [AzureFile CSI Driver](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/azurefile-csi-driver)
  to avoid disruption to existing Pod and PVC objects at that time. Azure File CSI driver does not support using same persistent

These extension points can now be abstracted away due to their irrelevance for most users.

### CSI Migration updates

CSI Migration enables the replacement of existing in-tree storage plugins such as `kubernetes.io/gce-pd` or `kubernetes.io/aws-ebs` with a corresponding CSI driver.
If CSI Migration is working properly, Kubernetes end users shouldn’t notice a difference.

SIG Storage also worked on a number of [Container Storage Interface (CSI) features](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/178) this quarter in anticipation of moving support for CSI from beta to GA in the next Kubernetes release. This includes graduating the dependent “mount namespace propagation” feature to GA, moving the Kubelet plugin registration mechanism to beta, adding alpha support for a new CSI driver registry as well as for topology, and adding a number of alpha features...

### Continued improvement of CSI

### CSI Proxy for Windows

The CSI Proxy for Windows is being promoted to beta along with the 1.19 release. This CSI Proxy enables CSI Drivers to run on Windows by allowing containers in Windows to perform privileged storage operations. At beta, the CSI Proxy for Windows supports storage drivers using direct attached disks and SMB.

### Dashboard v2

### Container Storage Interface graduations

CSI support for Windows nodes moves to GA in the 1.22 release. In Kubernetes v1.22, Windows privileged containers are only an alpha feature. To allow using CSI storage on Windows nodes, [CSIProxy](https://github.com/kubernetes-csi/csi-proxy) enables CSI node plugins to be deployed as unprivileged pods, using the proxy to perform privileged storage operations on the node.
