Welcome to the KFD release v1.23.0. From this release on, Fury follows a different versioning schema. KFD version now will closely follow the version of the latest Kubernetes release that Fury supports. So this is the first release that supports Kubernetes runtime v1.23.0.

This distribution is maintained with ❤ī¸ by the team SIGHUP and is battle-tested in production environments.

kustomize build . | kubectl apply -f -

NOTE: The upgrade takes some minutes (depends on the cluster size), and you should expect some downtime during the upgrade process.

If you want to test the distribution in a test environment, spin up a kind cluster, then deploy all rendered manifests.

$ kind version
