🔹 Kubernetes - Kubernetes v1.33: Streaming List responses

The blog post discusses a new feature in Kubernetes v1.33, which introduces streaming encoding for List responses to help manage cluster stability as infrastructure scales. Previously, handling large List requests could lead to high memory consumption, potentially causing Out-of-Memory (OOM) issues. The new streaming encoder addresses this by processing each item in a List individually rather than as a single large block, allowing for incremental memory release and reducing the API server’s memory footprint. This results in improved scalability, reduced memory usage, increased stability, and better resource utilization. The blog also highlights performance gains, noting a 20x reduction in memory usage during benchmarks. The change is backward compatible and requires no client-side modifications. 👉 Read more
