Hi StarlingX Community,

I just received the below notification about the expiration of StarlingX's Kubernetes v1.27 certification.

Please let me know if you have test results for any newer Kubernetes releases that I can upload within the timeframe specified below.

Thanks and Best Regards,

Hello Open Infrastructure Foundation team,

We’re very pleased that your product, StarlingX, was included in our v1.27 Certified Kubernetes offerings. However, unless you soon acquire a newer certification for your product, your Kubernetes v1.27 certification will expire on May 15, 2024.  Any previous certifications you have for this product will expire as well.

As stated in Certified Kubernetes Conformance Program – Terms and Conditions, a Participant’s permission to use the Certified Kubernetes Marks and Participant Kubernetes Combinations with its Qualifying Offerings is time-limited. The Certified Kubernetes Marks and Participant Kubernetes Combinations may be used with a Qualifying Offering for a particular version of Kubernetes (e.g., Kubernetes x.y) until the later of:
  • 12 months after the release date of Kubernetes x.y, or
  • 9 months after the release date of the next minor release (e.g., Kubernetes x.y+1)
v1.27.0 was released on April 11, 2023
https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/releases/tag/v1.27.0

v1.28.0 was released on August 15, 2023
https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/releases/tag/v1.28.0

Therefore, the expiration date for v1.27 is May 15, 2024.

Please make sure to certify your product for Kubernetes v1.28 or higher prior to May 15, in order to have your v1.27 certification remain in effect.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Thank you,
