GKE-Managed KubeRay Operator Update Timeline?

Google Cloud Serverless Applications
1

My team was pretty excited to discover that installing Ray in GKE was as simple as a checkbox on cluster creation.

But we were less excited to find that some of the newer properties in KubeRay’s docs/unit tests don’t seem to be available.

Does anyone have experience with the update timelines after a new release? There have been 3 so far this year that should include the feature we want but don’t have (excludeHeadPodFromServeSvc property on RayService/spec)

I can’t seem to find any mention of it in their docs, just that updating is their responsibility:

Hi le-davidc,

Welcome to Google Cloud Community!

In terms of update timelines, KubeRay and its integration with GKE can sometimes have a delay between new releases and updated documentation. Since GKE has its own managed Kubernetes environment, there may be additional integration layers that need to be updated for specific features to work.

For now, here are a few things you could try:
