New version of „Hangar“ with enhanced management features and performance optimizations

Nodepool management

The improved nodepool management provides greater clarity and scalability. Administrators can now manage clusters more efficiently as the Kubernetes API is relieved by a new cache mechanism and overall performance increases.

• Nodepool management has been fundamentally improved to ensure better scalability and clarity.
• The new cache mechanism via Informer reduces the load on the Kubernetes API and significantly improves performance.

Role-based access management

The new role concept makes access management simpler and more secure. Administrators benefit from clear responsibilities and can assign user roles more precisely.

• SuperAdmin: Complete control over all clusters, including creation, deletion and infrastructure management
• ClusterAdmin: Management of a specific cluster including user management and node scaling
• ClusterUser: Access to the cluster overview for assigned clusters

Infrastructure Overview

The new Infrastructure Overview gives administrators a comprehensive view of the infrastructure cluster. Key status information is instantly visible, enabling faster response to issues.

• Display of cluster name and Kubernetes version
• Status of the control plane components
• Overview of physical and virtual nodes with status information
• Warnings for insufficient resources (pending nodes)

Improved user management

User management has been enhanced with practical features that make cluster creation and administration easier. Admins can now assign users more quickly and effectively.

• Direct assignment of users during cluster creation
• Role selection (admin/user) via a clear interface
• Subsequent addition and removal of users in the cluster administration

Performance & stability

Targeted optimizations have made the platform more robust and secure. Administrators benefit from a more stable user experience and reduced risk of outages.

• Optimized certificate management for more security
• Expansion of test coverage for higher quality
• Various bug fixes for a more stable user experience
