On Wednesday November 12th, during the Helm 4 presentation at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon, Helm v4.0.0 was released. This is the first new major version of Helm in 6 years.

Ten years ago, in a hackathon shortly after the release of Kubernetes 1.1.0, Helm was born.

The first Alpha for Helm v4 has been released. Now that Helm v4 development is in the home stretch, we wanted to share the details on what's happening and how the broader community can get involved.

Helm is going to be at KubeCon / CloudNativeCon North America in Salt Lake City. There will be something happening each day of the main conference, including:

Helm 3.13 brings some significant and useful changes for Helm users. This ranges from longtime bugs being fixed to some new features that can have an impact on performance.

We regularly get questions from people who want tools or methods to manage their Helm releases in an environment. This post provides some insight and direction to help people get started.

With the release of Helm 3.8.0, Helm is able to store and work with charts in container registries, as an alternative to Helm repositories. This feature, which used to be an experimental feature, is now generally available.

Helm has now completed a second security audit, funded by the CNCF. The first audit focused on the source code for the Helm client along with the process Helm uses to handle security. The second audit, performed by Trail of Bits, looked at the source code for the Helm client along with a threat model for the use of Helm.

Helm recently adopted a release schedule for minor and patch releases. Today, the second Wednesday in November 2020, marks the first release under the new schedule. This release schedule provides predictability to those who use Helm, contribute to Helm, and maintain Helm.
