Important Service Updates
- K8s 1.16 introduces API deprecations which will impact user workloads as described in this AKS issue. When AKS supports this version user action is required to remove dependencies on the deprecated APIs to avoid disruption to workloads. Ensure you have taken this action prior to upgrading to K8s 1.16 when it is available in AKS.
- CoreDNS has been updated to v1.6.6. This change can affect users using the deprecated Proxy plugin which is no longer supported. Users should replace that with the Forward Plugin.
#1304 - With the introduction of Kubernetes v1.16 on the last release that marked the start of the deprecation for v1.13 in AKS. 1.13 is scheduled to be retired on February 28th.
