Other changes in 1.37
UpdateUnverifiedAdded Sep 24, 2026
- Starting with GKE version 1.37.0-gke.2100000, newly created clusters default to using control plane node creation, which improves cluster security by having the control plane manage node registration instead of kubelet self-registration. Existing clusters are not affected.
