    Kubernetes v1.33: In-Place Pod Resize Graduated to Beta

    Kubernetes v1.33: In-Place Pod Resize Graduated to Beta What is in-place Pod resize? Why does in-place Pod resize matter? What's changed between Alpha and Beta?

Getting started and providing feedback On behalf of the Kubernetes project, I am excited to announce that the in-place Pod resize feature (also known as In-Place Pod Vertical Scaling), first introduced as alpha in Kubernetes v1.27, has graduated to Beta and will be enabled by default in the Kubernetes v1.33 release! This marks a significant milestone in making resource management for Kubernetes workloads more flexible and less disruptive. Traditionally, changing the CPU or memory resources allocated to a container required restarting the Pod.
