  Calico versions as vMAJOR.MINOR.PATCH on a v3 line. Minor releases carry features and (announced)
  breaking changes; patch releases are bug fixes only. Two release lines are maintained
  concurrently — currently v3.32.x and v3.31.x.
current_version: v3.32.2
current_released: '2026-08-30'
cadence_observed: >-
  Derived from the 14 most recent GitHub releases: a minor roughly every 5-6 months (v3.29 -> v3.30
  -> v3.31 -> v3.32), with patches on the two supported lines roughly every 4-8 weeks. The provider
  does not publish a committed cadence; this is measured, not quoted.

  type: minor
  breaking: true
  highlights:
  - Native projectcalico.org/v3 CRDs (tech preview) — the successor to the aggregation API server,
    removing a long-standing source of installation friction on managed Kubernetes platforms.
  - Support for the upstream Kubernetes ClusterNetworkPolicy resource, giving cluster admins
    cluster-scoped rules.
  - Istio ambient mode — mTLS at lower resource cost than sidecar mesh.
  - KubeVirt live migration over BGP.
  - Maglev consistent-hash load balancing.
  breaking_changes:
  - AdminNetworkPolicy and BaselineAdminNetworkPolicy API support REMOVED in favour of
    ClusterNetworkPolicy. These resources must be removed or replaced before upgrade — v3.32 and
    newer will not enforce them. The static adminnetworkpolicy and baselineadminnetworkpolicy tiers
    are removed with them.
  deprecations:
  - Aggregation API server deprecated and scheduled for removal in an upcoming release; migrate to
    native v3 CRDs.
