Amazon EKS 1.36
Kubernetes v1.36: More Drivers, New Features, and the Next Era of DRA
The Kubernetes v1.36 blog post describes DRA changes in that release, including Prioritized list and Partitionable devices graduating, plus new alpha features such as node allocatable resources via DRA and a resource pool status request object. Device taints, binding conditions, and resource health status moved to beta. The post states that the new alpha features sit behind feature gates disabled by default.
What changes for platform teams
Platform teams running GPU or other accelerator workloads can use fallback device preferences, device taints, and pool status queries for scheduling and capacity planning. Alpha features like node CPU and memory via DRA should be evaluated only in test clusters for now.
