Kubernetes Contributor Summit North America 2024

CGroup V1 is being phased out in many distributions and container runtime communities. Dropping support for cgroup v1 is a challenging task due to the long tail of operating systems. In this talk, we will discuss methods for deprecating cgroup v1 and include ways to phase cgroup v1 out. We will discuss ways to formalize the deprecation of cgroup v1 for distributions. We will also give an overview of what cgroup v2 benefits us and some features that the Kubernetes community should be excited about.
