Release Notes for KubeSlice EE 1.5.0

Release Date: 29th December 2023

KubeSlice is a cloud-independent platform that combines network, application, Kubernetes, and deployment services in a framework to accelerate application deployment in a multi-cluster and multi-tenant environment. KubeSlice achieves this by creating logical application slice boundaries which allow pods and services to communicate seamlessly across clusters, clouds, edges, and data centers.

We continue to add new features and enhancements to KubeSlice.

What's New

These release notes describe the new changes and enhancements in this version.

New Features

Application Replication

KubeSlice now supports application replication between the clusters that are in homogeneous or hybrid network environment. This version introduces a new type of slice called a replication slice that is used to replicate namespaces between two clusters.

For more information, see replication slice and create replication slices.

KubeSlice Manager Supports Private Clusters Connectivity

This version extends support for private cluster connectivity through the KubeSlice Manager, in addition to support through YAML configuration. When creating a slice, options are available to choose the gateway service type and the gateway protocol for connecting clusters. The LoadBalancer service for private clusters is now added as a new option, in addition to the existing default Nodeport gateway service.
