Welcome to Bottlerocket 1.0! Since the first public preview, we've added new variants for Amazon ECS and Kubernetes 1.16 and 1.17, support for ARM instances and more EC2 regions, along with many new features and security improvements. We appreciate all the feedback and contributions so far and look forward to working with the community on even wider support.

kubelet(#382). - New settings:
settings.kubernetes.node-labelsandsettings.kubernetes.node-taints(#390, #408). - The control container has an
enable-admin-containerhelper (#405, #413). Made default in v0.2.0 (#472). - Rust dependencies updated (#410).
thar-be-settingsadded trace-level messages in the client module (#411).updogno longer checks for migrations from new root images (#416).plutowas cleaned up to create an HTTP connection more consistently (#419).- Settings that are usually generated may have defaults, and
settings.kubernetes.max-podsdefaults to110if the EC2 instance type cannot be determined (#420). - The admin container MOTD is clearer about where the host's filesystem is mounted (#424).
block-party(used ingrowpartandsignpost) errors are better structured (#425).thar-be-settingslogs render errors when running in--allmode (#427).- Recommended
