📰 Noteworthy

• [USER] The kube-system/csi-disk-plugin-alicloud DaemonSet is no longer scaled by a VerticalPodAutoscaler as it does not really benefit from it. Removing VerticalPodAutoscaler for that component will reduce unnecessary evictions by VPA and will be a mitigation for https://issues.k8s.io/126921. by @ialidzhikov [#750]

v1.57.0

[gardener/gardener-extension-provider-alicloud]

⚠️ Breaking Changes

• [OPERATOR] The Helm charts for the application and runtime parts of the gardener-extension-admission-alicloud admission controller have been separated into standalone charts. These charts now assume a Garden setup with a virtual garden. Both charts must be deployed individually: the runtime chart on the Garden runtime cluster, and the application chart on the virtual garden. Additionally, the intermediate global level in the Helm values has been removed, so you may need to adjust your provided values accordingly. by @MartinWeindel [#746]
