API Concepts

Versioning

The API types for nodeadm (the node.eks.aws API group) are versioned in a similar manner to the Kubernetes API.

There are three levels of stability and support:

Alpha

• Example: v1alpha2.
• Support for an alpha API may be removed at any time.
• Subsequent alpha API versions may include incompatible changes, and migration instructions may not be provided.

Beta

• Example: v3beta4.
• Support for a beta API will remain for at least one release following its deprecation.
• Subsequent beta or stable API versions may include incompatible changes, and migration instructions will be provided.

Stable

• Example: v5.
• Support for a stable API will align with the support of a major version of Amazon Linux.
