v0.6.0

Changes since v0.5.5

✨ New Features

• Support for using custom AMIs for the bastion instance (#1864)

• Support for using io2 volumes (#1889)

• Add support for multiple block device mappings (#1878)

• Support for using spot instances (#1868, #1873)

• Initial support for Amazon EKS (#1815, #1724, #1879, #1856, #1913, #1910, #1909, #1848, #1914, #1853)
  This version adds the first implementation of Cluster API Provider AWS for use with Amazon EKS.
  To be able to install the required bootstrap provider with the clusterctl release from v0.3.9, add (or create) the following to ~/.cluster-api/clusterctl.yaml:

  providers:
    - name: "eks"
      url: "https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/cluster-api-provider-aws/releases/latest/eks-bootstrap-components.yaml"
      type: "BootstrapProvider"

  Further instructions on using Cluster API Provider AWS with Amazon EKS can be found in https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/cluster-api-provider-aws/blob/v0.6.0/docs/eks.md

v0.5.5

Changes since v0.5.4

✨ New Features

• Bastion instance type is selectable, and now defaults to t3.micro except us-east-1 (t2.micro) (#1831)
• Allow for the use filters to select subnet for machines (#1833)
• Capture metrics for every AWS API request, available on /metrics (#1807)
• Support for conditions on resources managed by Cluster API Provider AWS (#1777, #1740, #1834)
• Allow user defined ingress rules for CNI (#1747)
• Allow configuration of Bastion host's ingress rules with cidrBlocks field (#1761)
• Changes to the default subnetting logic, now supporting multi-AZ control planes (#1721)
• Parallel NAT Gateway creation, speeding up cluster creation (#1805)
• Allows configuring crossZoneLoadBalancing on controlPlaneLoadBalancer (#1801)
• Create a bastion host if it's enabled in the spec, regardless of managed or unmanaged VPC (#1759)
• clusterawsadm adds programmatic and YAML based API configuration, with new command set and help (#1734, #1820)

Please note that the new clusterawsadm bootstrap iam create-cloudformation-stack command does not create bootstrapper.cluster-api-provider-aws.sigs.k8s.io IAM user by default. If you rely on this functionality, use the old clusterawsadm alpha bootstrap create-stack command or specify bootstrapUser.Enable = true in the configuration file, e.g.

apiVersion: bootstrap.aws.infrastructure.cluster.x-k8s.io/v1alpha1
kind: AWSIAMConfiguration
spec:
  bootstrapUser:
    enable: true
