Announcing Velero 1.0: Stability, Usability, Extensibility

May 20, 2019 Tom Spoonemore

Just three months after the release of Velero 0.11, the community keeps up the momentum by pushing out a landmark version 1.0 release. This significant release improves the installation experience, Helm support, the plugin system, and overall stability. We want to acknowledge all the hard work and thank the community and the team for their amazing contributions in achieving this major milestone.

Data protection is always a chief concern for application owners who want to make sure that they can restore a cluster to a known good state, recover from a crashed cluster, or migrate to a new environment. With Velero 1.0, Kubernetes cluster administrators can feel confident that they have a production-grade backup solution for their cluster resources and applications.

To learn about all of the highlights of Velero 1.0, read the full announcement on Velero.io.
