The Tanzu Kubernetes versions are enterprise distributions, and lag the open-source release train. It is highly recommended to use API version 1.23 or later as:

  • It will have the longest life cycle of support from VMware
  • 1.23 dropped a number of APIs using 1.23 and below may introduce additional technical debt.
