What’s new, improved and removed

Upgraded HAProxy

• This version upgrades to HAProxy 2.7 as the underlying load balancer engine.

Docker image tags

• The haproxytech/kubernetes-ingress Docker image now has major.minor version tags, such as 1.8, 1.9, and 1.10 so that users can more easily pin their deployment to a specific version.

Dropped support for Beta versions of Ingress

• We no longer support the deprecated Kubernetes APIs extensions/v1beta1 and networking.k8s.io/v1beta1 on Ingress resources. Instead, use networking.k8s.io/v1.

Matching of CPU quotas

• The ingress controller now sets its GOMAXPROCS variable to match the match the Linux container’s CPU quota, providing better performance.

Gateway API (TCPRoute)

• Added support for the TCPRoute resource in Gateway API. This provides a new way of routing TCP traffic, as an alternative to the --configmap-tcp-services startup argument.
