      STACKIT Kubernetes Engine (SKE): New Resource Reservations

      To ensure the stability of your Kubernetes clusters, SKE reserves resources on all nodes of the cluster to provide memory and CPU for system components. The amount of reserved resources varies depending on the size of the respective nodes.

      New Kubernetes clusters created from 21.07.2025 will have changes in their available resources. We will adjust the amount of reserved resources by SKE and utilize the calculation as described below.

      Memory reservations

      Section titled “Memory reservations”

      For memory resources, SKE reserves the following:

      • 25% of the first 4 GiB of memory
      • 20% of the next 4 GiB of memory
      • 10% of the next 8 GiB of memory
      • 6% of the next 112 GiB of memory
      • 2% of any memory above 128 GiB
      • SKE also reserves an additional 100 MiB of memory on every node to handle Pod eviction.

      CPU reservations

      Section titled “CPU reservations”

      For CPU resources, SKE reserves the following:

      • 3.5% of the first 2 cores
      • 0.5% of the next 2 cores
      • 0.25% of any cores above 4 cores

      Existing Kubernetes clusters will (currently) remain unchanged in their available resources and will be adjusted on 22.07.2025. Thus, a node roll will be triggered on the next given maintenance window of the cluster.

      More information can be found in the SKE documentation: Quotas and limits.

      Server Update Management: Update process changed to improve the reliability

      In order to improve the reliability and the security we have implemented a change in the process which we use to trigger the update installation on your servers.

      Until now we were using a process in which:

      • STACKIT administration user was created in all servers which use the Server Update Management Service
      • STACKIT management security groups were attached to your servers to allow access
      • Additional scripts needed to be downloaded and run if the service was enabled after the server was created

      Now we have started to use STACKIT Server Agent running as a service on your servers. It will make the process more reliable as it does not depend on other settings in the operating system or in the security groups. If you have the agent installed, you do not need to run additional scripts to configure the update service after server creation.

      In order for the update process to work properly, please do not stop or uninstall the agent. We have automatically installed it on your servers with active update management process.

      If any settings were changed that prevented the update process from working properly until now, they might have also affected the automated installation of the agent. In these cases, please install the STACKIT Server Agent manually following this guideline.

      STACKIT Kubernetes Engine (SKE): Disable System Components in Node Pools

      Today, we introduced a new option to give you more control over the resource usage of your SKE clusters: you can now disable system components on selected node pools. To use this new feature, you need to set the new field allowSystemComponents to false in the node pool configuration of your cluster. However, at least one node pool per cluster needs to have system components enabled.

      Here is an example:

      Disable System Components

      kubernetes:
        version: "1.29"
      nodepools:
      - name: "pool 1"
        allowSystemComponents: true
        # ...more configuration options
      - name: "pool 2"
        allowSystemComponents: false
        # ...more configuration options
      - name: "pool 3"
      - allowSystemComponents: false
        # ...more configuration options

      In the future, this option will be available in the STACKIT Cloud Portal.

      Kubernetes version 1.26 is getting deprecated in SKE

      Kubernetes version 1.26 has reached the end of its official maintenance support. Therefore, we will remove this version from the STACKIT Kubernetes Engine (SKE). We will automatically update all clusters running with Kubernetes version 1.26 to 1.27 on 31st of July 2024.

      We already support three newer Kubernetes versions (1.27, 1.28 & 1.29). Please update your clusters soon.

      In case you have questions you can find more information regarding the v1.27 Kubernetes version here & our SKE updating process here.

      Change for accessing your SKE cluster:

      Please note that Kubernetes version 1.27 no longer supports static token kubeconfigs. Instead, you can create short-live admin kubeconfigs. This change increases the security of your SKE cluster as you can limit the validity of a specific kubeconfig to a specific time period.

      You can already use the new short-lived admin kubeconfigs with Kubernetes version 1.26. However, once you start using the new short-lived admin kubeconfigs, the old method of getting static token kubeconfigs will no longer work. Further information can be found in our STACKIT documentation.

      In addition, we offer the option of accessing your SKE cluster via STACKIT CLI. Instructions can be found in our Release notes here.

      STACKIT Confidential Kubernetes product is now available

      We are happy to announce that STACKIT Confidential Kubernetes product is now available.

      STACKIT Confidential Kubernetes combines the advantages of the popular orchestration tool Kubernetes with the high security standards of confidential computing. The solution is based on the Kubernetes Engine Constellation by Edgeless Systems. It allows users to deploy and operate self-managed Kubernetes clusters with extensive security features without much effort. The highlight: clusters are completely isolated from the underlying cloud infrastructure and third-party access. They are completely encrypted throughout, including the storage at runtime. These properties are verifiable to third parties.

      For more information, see the product page or use our tutorials to get started.

      STACKIT Kubernetes Engine (SKE): New Operating System version for mitigation of runc vulnerability available

      A runc vulnerability (called “Leaky Vessels”) was recently identified by Snyk Security Labs. For Kubernetes this means an attacker could use this vulnerability to escape the container and gain unauthorized access to the underlying host operating system. For additional information, you can see the following resources:

      This means for you:

      • If you have “Automatic OS Updates” enabled: You don’t need to do anything. We have released a new OS (Version 3760.2.0) which mitigates this vulnerability. A rolling update of the worker nodes of your cluster will be performed in your configured maintenance window. Detailed instructions how to configure “Automatic OS updates” can be found in the STACKIT Kubernetes Engine documentation.

      • If you have “Automatic OS Updates” disabled: You need to manually update the OS version of your worker nodes as soon as possible. We have also informed the project owners of affected clusters via email. Otherwise, remaining SKE clusters will be automatically updated on Wednesday, 28.02.2024, in their configured maintenance window. Additionally, we highly advise to use our “Automatic OS updates” feature in the future.

      MongoDB databases can now be cloned

      With the clone function you can copy your data from one MongoDB instance to another MongoDB instance. This allows you for example, to easily provide data for a testing system or quality assurance system.
      You can access this feature by opening the MongoDB dashboard in the STACKIT Portal. The new feature is located in the Backup section.
