See the Service Interconnect documentation for earlier supported configurations.

Primary support

Kubernetes sites

Distributions

OpenShift 4.x support includes the latest release and latest EUS release.

Support for Non-OpenShift distributions of Kubernetes requires Kubernetes version 1.28 or later.

Other ingress types for non-OpenShift distributions of Kubernetes fall under commercially reasonable support.

Upgrades

• Red Hat supports upgrades from one downstream minor version to the next, with no jumps.

Disconnected operation

Red Hat supports deployment of Service Interconnect in disconnected environments.
