26.03 Kubeflow AI Reference Platform

The release versioning is now calendar-based (Year.Month.Patch). Around two base releases are planned per year with optional patch releases. The best-effort only community support is roughly 6 months and there is commercial support available from multiple vendors. Please update regularly as explained in our upgrading and extending section to benefit also from security and performance improvements.

• Installation steps tested and based on our CI, easier in-place updates (optimized PDBs)
• Cleanup of all synchronization steps for faster releases / updates of dependencies

• Fix networkpolicies for cert-manager, knative-serving, istio-system, dex, oauth2-proxy

Planned for the next release:

• Kubeflow/dashboard update https://github.com/kubeflow/dashboard/releases/tag/v2.0.0-rc.0
• Kubeflow/notebooks update for notebooks v1 https://github.com/kubeflow/notebooks/releases/tag/v1.11.0-rc.0 and workspaces (v2)
• Enable model registry and catalog #3318
• Trainer 2.2.0 #3413 and #3415
• Kserve 0.17.0 #3406
• PSS restricted also for user namespaces in our CI
• Remove knative-eventing or add network policies and PSS restricted for it

Full Changelog: v1.11.0...26.03-rc.1

Kubeflow AI reference platform 1.11.0

This release supports Kubernetes 1.33+ and transparently switches from MinIO to Seaweedfs as S3 storage. Please backup and restore any data that you have on MinIO if needed. Please be aware of the tested and recommended Kustomize version 5.7.1.

Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OV1RurEBISA
Blogpost: https://blog.kubeflow.org/kubeflow-1.11-release/

Highlights:

• Massive scalability improvements that should allow you to scale to 1000+ users/profiles/namespaces
• By default namespaces/profiles have zero pod overhead now, so you save 2x number of namespaces pods.
• By default the Istio service mesh is pruned to save Terabytes of Istio sidecar memory and network traffic on very large clusters #3206
• S3 storage with hard multi-tenancy and per namespace credentials. Limitations of kubeflow/pipelines#12373 and kubeflow/pipelines#9889 still apply. See also https://blog.kubeflow.org/gsoc/community/kubeflow/2025/09/06/kubeflow-and-gsoc2025.html#project-1-kubeflow-platform-enhancements for more information.
• PodSecurityStandards restricted is enforced for all system namespaces. PodSecurityStandards baseline is enforced for user namespaces https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/security/pod-security-standards/
• Automatic tests/documentation for exposing Kserve inference services with authentication inside and outside of the cluster https://github.com/kubeflow/manifests/blob/v1.11-branch/.github/workflows/katib_test.yaml
• Experimental helm charts development has started https://github.com/kubeflow/manifests/tree/v1.11-branch/experimental/helm/charts
• Typical resource consumption per component https://github.com/kubeflow/manifests/tree/v1.11-branch#kubeflow-version-master
• KFP 2.15.0 (still supports V1 pipelines and the 1.8.23 SDK), Trainer 2.1.0, Training Operator 1.9.2, Katib 0.19.0, KServe 0.15.2, Kserve models web application 0.15.0, Spark operator 2.4.0, Model Registry 0.3.4, Istio 1.28.0, DEX 2.44, OAuth2-Proxy 7.13
• Network Policies for the namespaces knative-serving oauth2-proxy cert-manager istio-system auth by @kunal-511 in #3228
• Massive test improvements across repositories which should lead to significantly higher quality releases.
• So far this release has been tested on Kind, AKS and GKE (with GKE specific istio overlay), but should also work on EKS, Rancher and many other Kubernetes clusters.

Candidates for 1.11.1 / 1.12.0:

• enable model-registry by default
• kubeflow/dashboard update after repository migration kubeflow/dashboard#125
• kubeflow/notebooks update for v1 kubeflow/notebooks#572 or v2 preview
• Kserve 0.16.0 https://github.com/kserve/kserve/releases/tag/v0.16.0, #3290

Kubeflow AI reference platform 1.11.0-rc.0

This pre-release supports Kubernetes 1.33+ and transparently switches from Minio to seaweedfs as S3 storage. Please backup and restore any data that you have on MinIO if needed. Please try it out and provide development feedback.

Highlights:

• Massive scalability improvements that should allow you to scale to 1000+ users/profies/namespaces
• By default namespaces/profiles have zero pod overhead now, so you save 2x number of namespaces pods.
• By default the Istio service mesh is pruned to save Terabytes of Istio sidecar memory and network traffic on very large clusters #3206
• S3 storage with hard multi-tenancy and per namespace credentials. Limitations of kubeflow/pipelines#12373 and kubeflow/pipelines#9889 still apply. See also https://blog.kubeflow.org/gsoc/community/kubeflow/2025/09/06/kubeflow-and-gsoc2025.html#project-1-kubeflow-platform-enhancements for more information.
• PodSecurityStandards restricted is enforced for all system namespaces. PodSecurityStandards baseline is enforced for user namespaces https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/security/pod-security-standards/
• Automatic tests/documentation for exposing Kserve inference services with authentication inside and outside of the cluster https://github.com/kubeflow/manifests/blob/v1.11-branch/.github/workflows/katib_test.yaml
• Experimental helm charts development has started https://github.com/kubeflow/manifests/tree/v1.11-branch/experimental/helm/charts
• Typical resource consumption per component https://github.com/kubeflow/manifests/tree/v1.11-branch#kubeflow-version-master
• KFP 2.15.0 (still supports V1 pipelines and the 1.8.23 SDK), Trainer 2.1.0, Training Operator 1.9.2, KServe 0.15.0, Kserve models web application 0.15.0, Spark operator 2.3.0, Istio 1.28, DEX 2.43, OAuth2-Proxy 7.10
• Network Policies for the namespaces knative-serving oauth2-proxy cert-manager istio-system auth by @kunal-511 in #3228
• Massive test improvements across repositories which should lead to significantly higher quality releases.
• So far this release was tested on Kind and GKE (with GKE specific istio overlay), but should also work on AKS, EKS, Rancher and many other Kubernetes clusters.

TODO: Spark-operator 2.4 https://github.com/kubeflow/spark-operator/releases/tag/v2.4.0, Kserve 0.16.0 https://github.com/kserve/kserve/releases/tag/v0.16.0, Katib 0.19.0

Probably 1.11.1 / 1.12.0:

• enable model-registry by default
• kubeflow/dashboard update after repository migration kubeflow/dashboard#125
• kubeflow/notebooks update for v1 kubeflow/notebooks#572 or v2 preview

Full Changelog: v1.10.0-rc.2...v1.10.0-rc.3

Note: We support Kubernetes 1.31-1.33 directly. It should also work on Kubernetes 1.29+, but on some 1.29-1.30 clusters you might have to either enable the native sidecars feature gate on your Kubernetes cluster or you need to disable NATIVE_SIDECARS here https://github.com/kubeflow/manifests/blob/421ffcd46899d4916972d39949a6ea0c8fe97ff2/common/istio-1-24/istio-install/base/install.yaml#L3006-L3007 or here https://github.com/kubeflow/manifests/blob/421ffcd46899d4916972d39949a6ea0c8fe97ff2/common/istio-cni-1-24/istio-install/base/install.yaml#L3318-L3319.
But Kubernetes 1.30 is already End of Life by 2025-06-28, so we strongly recommend to upgrade to 1.31+. We also tested that native sidecars work on AKS and GKE 1.31+. Kubernetes 1.33 is planned for release on April 23 2025, so we plan to support 1.31-1.33 and down to 1.29 depending on your cluster with native sidecars workarounds.
