We are updating the default value of Maxskew for the topology key topology.kubernetes.io/zone (spread across zones) from 5 to 1. Please note that this change does not affect the default values for other variables, such as whenUnsatisfiable, which will remain the same.
This adjustment aims to improve the distribution of pods across zones, enhancing the overall reliability and availability of your applications. By reducing the Maxskew value, we ensure a more balanced workload distribution, which can help prevent potential bottlenecks and improve fault tolerance. This change is part of our ongoing efforts to optimize the performance and resilience of our services.
