Release Notes
=============
Airship Overview
----------------
Airship is a robust system for delivering container-based cloud infrastructure
(or any other containerized workload)
at scale on bare metal, public clouds, and edge clouds.
Airship integrates best-of-class CNCF projects, such as Cluster API, Kustomize, Metal3,
and Helm Operator, to deliver a resilient and predictable lifecycle experience.
Combining easy lifecycle management with zero-downtime real-time upgrade capability,
Airship can handle the
provisioning and configuration of the operating system, RAID services, and the network.

------------------------------------
Release 2.0 introduces a variety of significant improvements:
- No-touch bootstrap for remote sites as well as local sites
- Declarative image building for both ephemeral ISO and bare metal targeted QCOWs
- Declarative cluster lifecycle
- Lifecycle for bare metal, public cloud, and edge cloud infrastructure
- Single command line "airshipctl"
- Lifecycle defined as a sequence of phases
- Introduction of a plan for the phases
- Seamless integration with CNCF projects (CAPI, Metal3, Kustomize)
- Seamless integration with security plugins like SOPS
- Generic container interface: mechanism to extend airshipctl with ad hoc functionality
