The Path to Helm 4 - Matt Farina, SUSE & Andrew Block, Red Hat

Thursday November 14, 2024 5:25pm - 6:00pm MST

Hyatt Regency | Level 2 | Salt Lake Ballroom C

Helm, the package manager for Kubernetes, has had a long and storied history alongside Kubernetes, dating back to 2015. As Kubernetes has grown, matured, and evolved, so has Helm. Since Helm is used by communities and organizations throughout the world, it is important that the project remains stable and efficient. For this to occur, Helm utilizes semantic versioning which ensures the CLI and API remain stable. However, as Kubernetes has evolved, it has been difficult to add new capabilities while also complying with these standards. There becomes a point for which breaking changes must be made. For this reason, Helm is embarking on Helm 4 which will help shape the future of the project. In this session, attendees will learn: How Helm remains stable including the safeguards used Why Helm is embarking on a new major version The key the features associated with Helm 4 Helm 3 support, during and afterward How to get involved The future of Helm is NOW and you can participate!
