docs: Add a Gatekeeper-Kubernetes compatibility matrix to the release… #3664
Conversation
management page. A compatibility matrix would be helpful to Gatekeeper users who are using non-supported versions of Kubernetes. Gatekeeper’s support policy is that it ensures compatibility of currently supported Gatekeeper versions with currently supported Kubernetes versions. Gatekeeper supports n-1 minor release versions where n is the current release. This matrix assumes that at any point in time where there is overlap between a supported version of Gatekeeper and a supported version of Kubernetes, they will be compatible.

Thank you for adding this @KayenM! Do you think maybe moving the table to a new page e.g. kubernetes-versions under |
Hey @ritazh, yes for sure, thanks for pointing me to that! I can modify this PR to make a new page very similar to OPA Versions compatibility. I can also change the matrix to be a 2-column table as it would be easier to maintain going forward. |

I've moved the table to a new page in the Gatekeeper website docs for better discovery. |

This is great as a snapshot in time. Unfortunately, unless this is part of the release CI, it will go out of date quickly as new GK and K8s versions are released. Can we automate creation of this table?

Hey thank you both! Sorry for the delay here.
That's a great point @sozercan, I'd be happy to add that feature as part of this change or after this is merged. It might take me a bit longer to complete if that's alright (end of November)?

@KayenM can you pls also add the changes to https://github.com/open-policy-agent/gatekeeper/tree/master/website/versioned_docs each version doc should go up to that GK version. |
For sure, thanks for pointing that out! I've amended my commit to make the change to the versioned docs. |
Summary: For improved discovery, this moves the matrix from the release management file in the Gatekeeper repo, to the Gatekeeper website under the Architecture heading. For better readability and simpler maintenance, instead of using a matrix, we are using a 2 column table. This way, the team won't need to add a new row and column to the matrix for each new release.

Thank you! I fixed a typo I made in the 3.6 version docs caught by the last deploy workflow, it needs another approval to be rerun. |
What this PR does / why we need it:
A compatibility table would be helpful to Gatekeeper users who are using non-supported versions of Kubernetes.
Gatekeeper’s support policy is that it ensures compatibility of currently supported Gatekeeper versions with currently supported Kubernetes versions. Gatekeeper supports n-1 minor release versions where n is the current release. This matrix assumes that at any point in time where there is overlap between a supported version of Gatekeeper and a supported version of Kubernetes, they will be compatible.
This table was created by checking overlap between supported versions of GK and Kubernetes, with the dates defined in this spreadsheet.
