Release candidate - The following issues are still outstanding https://github.com/projectcalico/calico-cni/milestone/1

This release marks a complete rewrite of the Calico plugin in Go. This means fast startup times for better performance.

It adds the following features:

  • Support for k8s username/password explicit config
  • Performance

Notes

  • The network plugin (calico) should be upgraded at the same time as the IPAM plugin (calico-ipam if used)
    • When using Calico for IPAM, the calico-ipam binary must be present. In the python version the functionality was also built into the calico plugin directly.
  • Users shouldn't need to change network config and should be able to upgrade a running system.
  • The format of the -v option to output the version has changed
  • There is a new default for the k8s_api_root
  • Support for the deprecated Kubernetes annotation based policy has been removed

For details of the configuration changes see the changes to configuration.md in the diff below.
