I just saw that swap on nodes is alpha in 1.22 . I don’t dig swap myself.

I think the biggest part of this release is going to be the Removal of several deprecated beta APIs! So many things are likely to break out there because of this, overall it has to happen for change but its going to cause some headaches.

The other thing but not mentioned here is that the public clouds are going to be defaulting to CSI instead of In-Tree storage drivers which is a big thing especially for us at Kasten that can help with the migration from in tree to CSI using our platform.

Yes I am still to be honest a little confused by the whole ingress situation.  One of the issues they had was that there were things in beta for very long time periods. Beta in Kubernetes from what I am understanding is not really beta like with other software. I believe this was more of a bureaucracy issue than software, i.e. getting approved to get out of beta. I think though they are dealing with this now but probably due to the fact that this is not like a software vendor who decides, ok no longer beta (when sometimes judging by the fixes later on it actually was). 

I will study their deprecated API migration guide some more :)  https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/using-api/deprecation-guide/
