Issue

Do not update to version 1.16.0-gke.20 if you depend on HPA. Horizontal Pod Autoscaling is not working in this version due to a recently discovered issue. A fix will be released with GKE 1.16.3+.

New features

Feature

You can now use Customer-managed encryption keys (beta) to control the encryption used for node boot disks as well as attached persistent disks in your clusters.

Feature

Consuming reservations in GKE is now generally available. Reservations allow you to reserve resources in a specific zone to ensure sufficient capacity is available for your workloads.

Changes

Changed

New clusters and node-pools created with the GKE API will have node auto-upgrade enabled by default. This change ensures that your clusters have the most recent default Kubernetes version, bug fixes, and security patches. Existing scripts running against the gcloud CLI or integrating with the GKE API will follow this new default behavior.

Node autoupgrades keep the nodes in your cluster up to date with the cluster master version when your master is updated on your behalf. To disable it explicitly, set autoUpgrade to false in the NodeManagement object.
