Keynote: Releasing a More Mature and Stable Kubernetes
summary
Kubernetes release engineering describes moving from a fragile 5,000-line bash pipeline to Go tooling, migrating artifact signing off a Google GCS bucket to community-hosted openSUSE OBS, and publishing reusable GitHub Actions for provenance SBOMs and release notes. The patch team grows from one person to ~14 people, releases that once ran serially for 3–4 concurrent patch releases a day now complete much faster, and package signing and distribution become community-managed and reproducible.
