 * Removal of maintainers from Velero
 
+## Deprecation Policy
+
+### Deprecation Process
+
+Any contributor may introduce a request to deprecate a feature or an option of a feature by opening a feature request issue in the vmware-tanzu/velero GitHub project. The issue should describe why the feature is no longer needed or has become detrimental to Velero, as well as whether and how it has been superseded. The submitter should give as much detail as possible.
+
+Once the issue is filed, a one-month discussion period begins. Discussions take place within the issue itself as well as in the community meetings. The person who opens the issue, or a maintainer, should add the date and time marking the end of the discussion period in a comment on the issue as soon as possible after it is opened. A decision on the issue needs to be made within this one-month period.
+
+The feature will be deprecated by a supermajority vote of 50% plus one of the project maintainers at the time of the vote tallying, which is 72 hours after the end of the community meeting that is the end of the comment period. (Maintainers are permitted to vote in advance of the deadline, but should hold their votes until as close as possible to hear all possible discussion.) Votes will be tallied in comments on the issue. 
+
+Non-maintainers may add non-binding votes in comments to the issue as well; these are opinions to be taken into consideration by maintainers, but they do not count as votes. 
+
+If the vote passes, the deprecation window takes effect in the subsequent release, and the removal follows the schedule. 
+
+### Schedule
+If depreciation proposal passes by supermajority votes, the feature is deprecated in the next minor release and the feature can be removed completely after two minor version or equivalent major version e.g., if feature gets deprecated in Nth minor version, then feature can be removed after N+2 minor version or its equivalent if the major version number changes.
+
+### Deprecation Window
+
+The deprecation window is the period from the release in which the deprecation takes effect through the release in which the feature is removed. During this period, only critical security vulnerabilities and catastrophic bugs should be fixed.
+
+**Note:** If a backup relies on a deprecated feature, then backups made with the last Velero release before this feature is removed must still be restorable in version `n+2`. For instance, something like restic feature support, that might mean that restic is removed from the list of supported uploader types in version `n` but the underlying implementation required to restore from a restic backup won't be removed until release `n+2`.
+
 ## Updating Governance

+
+Velero supports IPv4, IPv6, and dual stack environments. Support for this was tested against Velero v1.8.
+
+The Velero maintainers are continuously working to expand testing coverage, but are not able to test every combination of Velero and supported Kubernetes versions for each Velero release. The table above is meant to track the current testing coverage and the expected supported Kubernetes versions for each Velero version.
+
+If you are interested in using a different version of Kubernetes with a given Velero version, we'd recommend that you perform testing before installing or upgrading your environment. For full information around capabilities within a release, also see the Velero [release notes](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/releases) or Kubernetes [release notes](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/tree/master/CHANGELOG). See the Velero [support page](https://velero.io/docs/latest/support-process/) for information about supported versions of Velero.
+
+For each release, Velero maintainers run the test to ensure the upgrade path from n-2 minor release.  For example, before the release of v1.10.x, the test will verify that the backup created by v1.9.x and v1.8.x can be restored using the build to be tagged as v1.10.x.

-## Velero Roadmap
-
-### About this document
-This document provides a link to the [Velero Project boards](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/projects) that serves as the up to date description of items that are in the release pipeline. The release boards have separate swim lanes based on prioritization. Most items are gathered from the community or include a feedback loop with the community. This should serve as a reference point for Velero users and contributors to understand where the project is heading, and help determine if a contribution could be conflicting with a longer term plan. 
-
-### How to help?
-Discussion on the roadmap can take place in threads under [Issues](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/issues) or in [community meetings](https://velero.io/community/). Please open and comment on an issue if you want to provide suggestions, use cases, and feedback to an item in the roadmap. Please review the roadmap to avoid potential duplicated effort.
-
-### How to add an item to the roadmap?
-One of the most important aspects in any open source community is the concept of proposals. Large changes to the codebase and / or new features should be preceded by a [proposal](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/blob/main/GOVERNANCE.md#proposal-process) in our repo.
-For smaller enhancements, you can open an issue to track that initiative or feature request.
-We work with and rely on community feedback to focus our efforts to improve Velero and maintain a healthy roadmap.
-
-### Current Roadmap
-The following table includes the current roadmap for Velero. If you have any questions or would like to contribute to Velero, please attend a [community meeting](https://velero.io/community/) to discuss with our team. If you don't know where to start, we are always looking for contributors that will help us reduce technical, automation, and documentation debt.
-Please take the timelines & dates as proposals and goals. Priorities and requirements change based on community feedback, roadblocks encountered, community contributions, etc. If you depend on a specific item, we encourage you to attend community meetings to get updated status information, or help us deliver that feature by contributing to Velero.

 ## Confidentiality, integrity and availability
 
-We consider vulnerabilities leading to the compromise of data confidentiality, elevation of privilege, or integrity to be our highest priority concerns.

The Security Team takes all vulnerabilities, potential vulnerabilities, and suspected vulnerabilities seriously and will investigate them in an urgent and expeditious manner.
 
 Note that we do not currently consider the default settings for Velero to be secure-by-default. It is necessary for operators to explicitly configure settings, role based access control, and other resource related features in Velero to provide a hardened Velero environment. We will not act on any security disclosure that relates to a lack of safe defaults. Over time, we will work towards improved safe-by-default configuration, taking into account backwards compatibility.

+### Upgrading
+https://velero.io/docs/v1.10/upgrade-to-1.10/
+
+### Highlights
+
+#### Unified Repository and Kopia integration
+In this release, we introduced the Unified Repository architecture to build a data path where data movers and the backup repository are decoupled and a unified backup repository could serve various data movement activities.
+
+In this release, we also deeply integrate Velero with Kopia, specifically, Kopia's uploader modules are isolated as a generic file system uploader; Kopia's repository modules are encapsulated as the unified backup repository.
+
+For more information, refer to the [design document](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/blob/v1.10.0/design/unified-repo-and-kopia-integration/unified-repo-and-kopia-integration.md).
+
+#### File system backup refactor
+Velero's file system backup (a.k.s. pod volume backup or formerly restic backup) is refactored as the first user of the Unified Repository architecture. Specifically, we added a new path, the Kopia path, besides the existing Restic path. While Restic path is still available and set as default, you can opt in Kopia path by specifying the `uploader-type` parameter at installation time. Meanwhile, you are free to restore from existing backups under either path, Velero dynamically switches to the correct path to process the restore.
+
+Because of the new path, we renamed some modules and parameters, refer to the Break Changes section for more details.
+
+For more information, visit the [file system backup document](https://velero.io/docs/v1.10/file-system-backup/) and [v1.10 upgrade guide document](https://velero.io/docs/v1.10/upgrade-to-1.10/).
+
+Meanwhile, we've created a performance guide for both Restic path and Kopia path, which helps you to choose between the two paths and provides you the best practice to configure them under different scenarios. Please note that the results in the guide are based on our testing environments, you may get different results when testing in your own ones. For more information, visit the [performance guide document](https://velero.io/docs/v1.10/performance-guidance/).
+
+#### Plugin versioning V1 refactor
+In this release, Velero moves plugins BackupItemAction, RestoreItemAction and VolumeSnapshotterAction to version v1, this allows future plugin changes that do not support backward compatibility, so is a preparation for various complex tasks, for example, data movement tasks.
+For more information, refer to the [plugin versioning design document](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/blob/v1.10.0/design/plugin-versioning.md).
+
+#### Refactor the controllers using Kubebuilder v3
+In this release we continued our code modernization work, rewriting some controllers using Kubebuilder v3. This work is ongoing and we will continue to make progress in future releases.
+
+#### Add credentials to volume snapshot locations
+In this release, we enabled dedicate credentials options to volume snapshot locations so that you can specify credentials per volume snapshot location as same as backup storage location.
+
+For more information, please visit the [locations document](https://velero.io/docs/v1.10/locations/).
+
+#### CSI snapshot enhancements
+In this release we added several changes to enhance the robustness of CSI snapshot procedures, for example, some protection code for error handling, and a mechanism to skip exclusion checks so that CSI snapshot works with various backup resource filters.
+
+#### Backup schedule pause/unpause
+In this release, Velero supports to pause/unpause a backup schedule during or after its creation. Specifically:
+
+At creation time, you can specify `–paused` flag to `velero schedule create` command, if so, you will create a paused schedule that will not run until it is unpaused
+After creation, you can run `velero schedule pause` or `velero schedule unpause` command to pause/unpause a schedule
+
+#### Runtime and dependencies
+In order to fix CVEs, we changed Velero's runtime and dependencies as follows:
+
+Bump go runtime to v1.18.8
+Bump some core dependent libraries to newer versions
+Compile Restic (v0.13.1) with go 1.18.8 instead of packaging the official binary
+
+
+#### Breaking changes
+Due to file system backup refactor, below modules and parameters name have been changed in this release:
+
+`restic` daemonset is renamed to `node-agent`
+`resticRepository` CR is renamed to `backupRepository`
+`velero restic repo` command is renamed to `velero repo`
+`velero-restic-credentials` secret is renamed to `velero-repo-credentials`
+`default-volumes-to-restic` parameter is renamed to `default-volumes-to-fs-backup`
+`restic-timeout` parameter is renamed to `fs-backup-timeout`
+`default-restic-prune-frequency` parameter is renamed to `default-repo-maintain-frequency`
+
+#### Upgrade
+Due to the major changes of file system backup, the old upgrade steps are not suitable any more. For the new upgrade steps, visit [v1.10 upgrade guide document](https://velero.io/docs/v1.10/upgrade-to-1.10/).
+
+#### Limitations/Known issues
+In this release, Kopia backup repository (so the Kopia path of file system backup) doesn't support self signed certificate for S3 compatible storage. To track this problem, refer to this [Velero issue](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/issues/5123) or [Kopia issue](https://github.com/kopia/kopia/issues/1443). 
+
+Due to the code change in Velero, there will be some code change required in vSphere plugin, without which the functionality may be impacted.  Therefore, if you are using vSphere plugin in your workflow, please hold the upgrade until the issue [#485](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero-plugin-for-vsphere/issues/485) is fixed in vSphere plugin.

+## v1.11
+### 2023-04-07
+
+### Download
+https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/releases/tag/v1.11.0
+
+### Container Image
+`velero/velero:v1.11.0`
+
+### Documentation
+https://velero.io/docs/v1.11/
+
+### Upgrading
+https://velero.io/docs/v1.11/upgrade-to-1.11/
+
+### Highlights
+
+#### BackupItemAction v2
+This feature implements the BackupItemAction v2. BIA v2 has two new methods: Progress() and Cancel() and modifies the Execute() return value.
+
+The API change is needed to facilitate long-running BackupItemAction plugin actions that may not be complete when the Execute() method returns. This will allow long-running BackupItemAction plugin actions to continue in the background while the Velero moves to the following plugin or the next item.
+
+#### RestoreItemAction v2
+This feature implemented the RestoreItemAction v2. RIA v2 has three new methods: Progress(), Cancel(), and AreAdditionalItemsReady(), and it modifies RestoreItemActionExecuteOutput() structure in the RIA return value.
+
+The Progress() and Cancel() methods are needed to facilitate long-running RestoreItemAction plugin actions that may not be complete when the Execute() method returns. This will allow long-running RestoreItemAction plugin actions to continue in the background while the Velero moves to the following plugin or the next item. The AreAdditionalItemsReady() method is needed to allow plugins to tell Velero to wait until the returned additional items have been restored and are ready for use in the cluster before restoring the current item.
+
+#### Plugin Progress Monitoring
+This is intended as a replacement for the previously-approved Upload Progress Monitoring design ([Upload Progress Monitoring](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/blob/main/design/upload-progress.md)) to expand the supported use cases beyond snapshot upload to include what was previously called Async Backup/Restore Item Actions.
+
+#### Flexible resource policy that can filter volumes to skip in the backup
+This feature provides a flexible policy to filter volumes in the backup without requiring patching any labels or annotations to the pods or volumes. This policy is configured as k8s ConfigMap and maintained by the users themselves, and it can be extended to more scenarios in the future. By now, the policy rules out volumes from backup depending on the CSI driver, NFS setting, volume size, and StorageClass setting. Please refer to [policy API design](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/blob/main/design/Implemented/handle-backup-of-volumes-by-resources-filters.md#api-design) for the policy's ConifgMap format. It is not guaranteed to work on unofficial third-party plugins as it may not follow the existing backup workflow code logic of Velero.
+
+#### Resource Filters that can distinguish cluster scope and namespace scope resources
+This feature adds four new resource filters for backup. The new filters are separated into cluster scope and namespace scope. Before this feature, Velero could not filter cluster scope resources precisely. This feature provides the ability and refactors existing resource filter parameters.
+
+#### Add a parameter for setting the Velero server connection with the k8s API server's timeout
+In Velero, some code pieces need to communicate with the k8s API server. Before v1.11, these code pieces used hard-code timeout settings. This feature adds a resource-timeout parameter in the velero server binary to make it configurable.
+
+#### Add resource list in the output of the restore describe command
+Before this feature, Velero restore didn't have a restored resources list as the Velero backup. It's not convenient for users to learn what is restored. This feature adds the resources list and the handling result of the resources (including created, updated, failed, and skipped).
+
+#### Refactor controllers with controller-runtime
+In v1.11, Backup Controller and Restore controller are refactored with controller-runtime. Till v1.11, all Velero controllers use the controller-runtime framework.
+
+#### Runtime and dependencies
+To fix CVEs and keep pace with Golang, Velero made changes as follows:
+* Bump Golang runtime to v1.19.8.
+* Bump several dependent libraries to new versions.
+* Compile Restic (v0.15.0) with Golang v1.19.8 instead of packaging the official binary.
+
+
+### Breaking changes
+* The Velero CSI plugin now determines whether to restore Volume's data from snapshots on the restore's restorePVs setting. Before v1.11, the CSI plugin doesn't check the restorePVs parameter setting. 
+
+
+### Limitations/Known issues
+* The Flexible resource policy that can filter volumes to skip in the backup is not guaranteed to work on unofficial third-party plugins because the plugins may not follow the existing backup workflow code logic of Velero. The ConfigMap used as the policy is supposed to be maintained by users.

+## v1.12
+### 2023-08-18
+
+### Download
+https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/releases/tag/v1.12.0
+
+### Container Image
+`velero/velero:v1.12.0`

+### Documentation
+https://velero.io/docs/v1.12/
+
+### Upgrading
+https://velero.io/docs/v1.12/upgrade-to-1.12/
+
+### Highlights
+
+#### CSI Snapshot Data Movement
+CSI Snapshot Data Movement refers to back up CSI snapshot data from the volatile and limited production environment into durable, heterogeneous, and scalable backup storage in a consistent manner; and restore the data to volumes in the original or alternative environment.
+
+CSI Snapshot Data Movement is useful in below scenarios:
+
+* For on-premises users, the storage usually doesn't support durable snapshots, so it is impossible/less efficient/cost ineffective to keep volume snapshots by the storage This feature helps to move the snapshot data to a storage with lower cost and larger scale for long time preservation.
+* For public cloud users, this feature helps users to fulfill the multiple cloud strategy. It allows users to back up volume snapshots from one cloud provider and preserve or restore the data to another cloud provider. Then users will be free to flow their business data across cloud providers based on Velero backup and restore
+
+CSI Snapshot Data Movement is built according to the Volume Snapshot Data Movement design ([Volume Snapshot Data Movement](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/blob/main/design/Implemented/unified-repo-and-kopia-integration/unified-repo-and-kopia-integration.md)). More details can be found in the design.
+
+#### Resource Modifiers
+In many use cases, customers often need to substitute specific values in Kubernetes resources during the restoration process like changing the namespace, changing the storage class, etc. 
+
+To address this need, Resource Modifiers (also known as JSON Substitutions) offer a generic solution in the restore workflow. It allows the user to define filters for specific resources and then specify a JSON patch (operator, path, value) to apply to the resource. This feature simplifies the process of making substitutions without requiring the implementation of a new RestoreItemAction plugin. More details can be found in Volume Snapshot Resource Modifiers design ([Resource Modifiers](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/blob/main/design/Implemented/json-substitution-action-design.md)).
+
+#### Multiple VolumeSnapshotClasses
+Prior to version 1.12, the Velero CSI plugin would choose the VolumeSnapshotClass in the cluster based on matching driver names and the presence of the "velero.io/csi-volumesnapshot-class" label. However,  this approach proved inadequate for many user scenarios.
+
+With the introduction of version 1.12, Velero now offers support for multiple VolumeSnapshotClasses in the CSI Plugin, enabling users to select a specific class for a particular backup. More details can be found in Multiple VolumeSnapshotClasses design ([Multiple VolumeSnapshotClasses](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/blob/main/design/Implemented/multiple-csi-volumesnapshotclass-support.md)).
+
+#### Restore Finalizer
+Before v1.12, the restore controller would only delete restore resources but wouldn’t delete restore data from the backup storage location when the command `velero restore delete` was executed. The only chance Velero deletes restores data from the backup storage location is when the associated backup is deleted.
+
+In this version, Velero introduces a finalizer that ensures the cleanup of all associated data for restores when running the command `velero restore delete`.
+
+#### Runtime and dependencies
+To fix CVEs and keep pace with Golang, Velero made changes as follows:
+* Bump Golang runtime to v1.20.7.
+* Bump several dependent libraries to new versions.
+* Bump Kopia to v0.13.
+
+
+### Breaking changes
+* Prior to v1.12, the parameter `uploader-type` for Velero installation had a default value of "restic". However, starting from this version, the default value has been changed to "kopia". This means that Velero will now use Kopia as the default path for file system backup.
+* The ways of setting CSI snapshot time have changed in v1.12. First, the sync waiting time for creating a snapshot handle in the CSI plugin is changed from the fixed 10 minutes into backup.Spec.CSISnapshotTimeout. The second, the async waiting time for VolumeSnapshot and VolumeSnapshotContent's status turning into `ReadyToUse` in operation uses the operation's timeout. The default value is 4 hours.
+* As from [Velero helm chart v4.0.0](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/helm-charts/releases/tag/velero-4.0.0), it supports multiple BSL and VSL, and the BSL and VSL have changed from the map into a slice, and[ this breaking change](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/helm-charts/pull/413) is not backward compatible. So it would be best to change the BSL and VSL configuration into slices before the Upgrade.
+
+
+### Limitations/Known issues
+* The Azure plugin supports Azure AD Workload identity way, but it only works for Velero native snapshots. It cannot support filesystem backup and snapshot data mover scenarios. 
+

+## v1.13
+### 2024-01-10
+
+### Download
+https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/releases/tag/v1.13.0
+
+### Container Image
+`velero/velero:v1.13.0`
+
+### Documentation
+https://velero.io/docs/v1.13/
+
+### Upgrading
+https://velero.io/docs/v1.13/upgrade-to-1.13/
+
+### Highlights
+
+#### Resource Modifier Enhancement
+Velero introduced the Resource Modifiers in v1.12.0. This feature allows users to specify a ConfigMap with a set of rules to modify the resources during restoration. However, only the JSON Patch is supported when creating the rules, and JSON Patch has some limitations, which cannot cover all use cases. In v1.13.0, Velero adds new support for JSON Merge Patch and Strategic Merge Patch, which provide more power and flexibility and allow users to use the same ConfigMap to apply patches on the resources. More design details can be found in [Support JSON Merge Patch and Strategic Merge Patch in Resource Modifiers](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/blob/main/design/Implemented/merge-patch-and-strategic-in-resource-modifier.md) design. For instructions on how to use the feature, please refer to the [Resource Modifiers](https://velero.io/docs/v1.13/restore-resource-modifiers/) doc.
+
+#### Node-Agent Concurrency
+Velero data movement activities from fs-backups and CSI snapshot data movements run in Velero node-agent, so may be hosted by every node in the cluster and consume resources (i.e. CPU, memory, network bandwidth) from there. With v1.13, users are allowed to configure how many data movement activities (a.k.a, loads) run in each node globally or by node, so that users can better leverage the performance of Velero data movement activities and the resource consumption in the cluster. For more information, check the [Node-Agent Concurrency](https://velero.io/docs/v1.13/node-agent-concurrency/) document. 
+
+#### Parallel Files Upload Options
+Velero now supports configurable options for parallel files upload when using Kopia uploader to do fs-backups or CSI snapshot data movements which makes speed up backup possible.
+For more information, please check [Here](https://velero.io/docs/v1.13/backup-reference/#parallel-files-upload).
+
+#### Write Sparse Files Options
+If using fs-restore or CSI snapshot data movements, it’s supported to write sparse files during restore. For more information, please check [Here](https://velero.io/docs/v1.13/restore-reference/#write-sparse-files).
+
+#### Backup Describe
+In v1.13, the Backup Volume section is added to the velero backup describe command output. The backup Volumes section describes information for all the volumes included in the backup of various backup types, i.e. native snapshot, fs-backup, CSI snapshot, and CSI snapshot data movement. Particularly, the velero backup description now supports showing the information of CSI snapshot data movements, which is not supported in v1.12.
+
+Additionally, backup describe command will not check EnableCSI feature gate from client side, so if a backup has volumes with CSI snapshot or CSI snapshot data movement, backup describe command always shows the corresponding information in its output.
+
+#### Backup's new VolumeInfo metadata
+Create a new metadata file in the backup repository's backup name sub-directory to store the backup-including PVC and PV information. The information includes the backing-up method of the PVC and PV data, snapshot information, and status. The VolumeInfo metadata file determines how the PV resource should be restored. The Velero downstream software can also use this metadata file to get a summary of the backup's volume data information.
+
+#### Enhancement for CSI Snapshot Data Movements when Velero Pod Restart
+When performing backup and restore operations, enhancements have been implemented for Velero server pods or node agents to ensure that the current backup or restore process is not stuck or interrupted after restart due to certain exceptional circumstances.
+
+#### New status fields added to show hook execution details
+Hook execution status is now included in the backup/restore CR status and displayed in the backup/restore describe command output. Specifically, it will show the number of hooks which attempted to execute under the HooksAttempted  field and the number of hooks which failed to execute under the HooksFailed  field. 
+
+#### AWS SDK Bump Up
+Bump up AWS SDK for Go to version 2, which offers significant performance improvements in CPU and memory utilization over version 1.
+
+#### Azure AD/Workload Identity Support
+Azure AD/Workload Identity is the recommended approach to do the authentication with Azure services/AKS, Velero has introduced support for Azure AD/Workload Identity on the Velero Azure plugin side in previous releases, and in v1.13.0 Velero adds new support for Kopia operations(file system backup/data mover/etc.) with Azure AD/Workload Identity.
+
+#### Runtime and dependencies
+To fix CVEs and keep pace with Golang, Velero made changes as follows:
+* Bump Golang runtime to v1.21.6.
+* Bump several dependent libraries to new versions.
+* Bump Kopia to v0.15.0.
+
+
+### Breaking changes
+* Backup describe command: due to the backup describe output enhancement, some existing information (i.e. the output for native snapshot, CSI snapshot, and fs-backup) has been moved to the Backup Volumes section with some format changes.
+* API type changes: changes the field [DataMoverConfig](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/blob/v1.13.0/pkg/apis/velero/v2alpha1/data_upload_types.go#L54) in DataUploadSpec from `*map[string][string]`` to `map[string]string`
+* Velero install command: due to the issue [#7264](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/issues/7264), v1.13.0 introduces a break change that make the informer cache enabled by default to keep the actual behavior consistent with the helper message(the informer cache is disabled by default before the change).
+
+
+### Limitations/Known issues
+* The backup's VolumeInfo metadata doesn't have the information updated in the async operations. This function could be supported in v1.14 release. 
+
+### Note
+* Velero introduces the informer cache which is enabled by default. The informer cache improves the restore performance but may cause higher memory consumption. Increase the memory limit of the Velero pod or disable the informer cache by specifying the `--disable-informer-cache` option when installing Velero if you get the OOM error.
+
+### Deprecation announcement
+* The generated k8s clients, informers, and listers are deprecated in the Velero v1.13 release. They are put in the Velero repository's pkg/generated directory. According to the n+2 supporting policy, the deprecated are kept for two more releases. The pkg/generated directory should be deleted in the v1.15 release.
+* After the backup VolumeInfo metadata file is added to the backup, Velero decides how to restore the PV resource according to the VolumeInfo content. To support the backup generated by the older version of Velero, the old logic is also kept. The support for the backup without the VolumeInfo metadata file will be kept for two releases. The support logic will be deleted in the v1.15 release.

+## v1.14
+
+### Download
+https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/releases/tag/v1.14.0
+
+### Container Image
+`velero/velero:v1.14.0`
+
+### Documentation
+https://velero.io/docs/v1.14/
+
+### Upgrading
+https://velero.io/docs/v1.14/upgrade-to-1.14/
+
+### Highlights
+
+#### The maintenance work for kopia/restic backup repositories is run in jobs
+Since velero started using kopia as the approach for filesystem-level backup/restore, we've noticed an issue when velero connects to the kopia backup repositories and performs maintenance, it sometimes consumes excessive memory that can cause the velero pod to get OOM Killed.  To mitigate this issue, the maintenance work will be moved out of velero pod to a separate kubernetes job, and the user will be able to specify the resource request in "velero install".
+#### Volume Policies are extended to support more actions to handle volumes
+In an earlier release, a flexible volume policy was introduced to skip certain volumes from a backup.  In v1.14 we've made enhancement to this policy to allow the user to set how the volumes should be backed up.  The user will be able to set "fs-backup" or "snapshot" as value of “action" in the policy and velero will backup the volumes accordingly.  This enhancement allows the user to achieve a fine-grained control like "opt-in/out" without having to update the target workload.  For more details please refer to https://velero.io/docs/v1.14/resource-filtering/#supported-volumepolicy-actions
+#### Node Selection for Data Movement Backup
+In velero the data movement flow relies on datamover pods, and these pods may take substantial resources and keep running for a long time.  In v1.14, the user will be able to create a configmap to define the eligible nodes on which the datamover pods are launched.  For more details refer to https://velero.io/docs/v1.14/data-movement-backup-node-selection/ 
+#### VolumeInfo metadata for restored volumes
+In v1.13, we introduced volumeinfo metadata for backup to help velero CLI and downstream adopter understand how velero handles each volume during backup.  In v1.14, similar metadata will be persisted for each restore. velero CLI is also updated to bring more info in the output of "velero restore describe".
+#### "Finalizing" phase is introduced to restores
+The "Finalizing" phase is added to the state transition flow to restore, which helps us fix several issues: The labels added to PVs will be restored after the data in the PV is restored via volumesnapshotter.  The post restore hook will be executed after datamovement is finished.
+#### Certificate-based authentication support for Azure
+Besides the service principal with secret(password)-based authentication, Velero introduces the new support for service principal with certificate-based authentication in v1.14.0. This approach enables you to adopt a phishing resistant authentication by using conditional access policies, which better protects Azure resources and is the recommended way by Azure.
+
+### Runtime and dependencies
+* Golang runtime: v1.22.2
+* kopia: v0.17.0
+
+### Limitations/Known issues
+* For the external BackupItemAction plugins that take snapshots for PVs, such as vsphere plugin.  If the plugin checks the value of the field "snapshotVolumes" in the backup spec as a criteria for snapshot, the settings in the volume policy will not take effect.  For example, if the "snapshotVolumes" is set to False in the backup spec, but a volume meets the condition in the volume policy for "snapshot" action, because the plugin will not check the settings in the volume policy, the plugin will not take snapshot for the volume.  For more details please refer to #7818
+
+### Breaking changes
+* CSI plugin has been merged into velero repo in v1.14 release.  It will be installed by default as an internal plugin, and should not be installed via "–plugins " parameter in "velero install" command.
+* The default resource requests and limitations for node agent are removed in v1.14, to make the node agent pods have the QoS class of "BestEffort", more details please refer to #7391
+* There's a change in namespace filtering behavior during backup:  In v1.14, when the includedNamespaces/excludedNamespaces fields are not set and the labelSelector/OrLabelSelectors are set in the backup spec, the backup will only include the namespaces which contain the resources that match the label selectors, while in previous releases all namespaces will be included in the backup with such settings.  More details refer to #7105
+* Patching the PV in the "Finalizing" state may cause the restore to be in "PartiallyFailed" state when the PV is blocked in "Pending" state, while in the previous release the restore may end up being in "Complete" state. For more details refer to #7866

+## v1.15
+
+### Download

+
+### Container Image
+`velero/velero:v1.15.0`

+### Documentation
+https://velero.io/docs/v1.15/
+
+### Upgrading
+https://velero.io/docs/v1.15/upgrade-to-1.15/
+
+### Highlights
+#### Data mover micro service
+Data transfer activities for CSI Snapshot Data Movement are moved from node-agent pods to dedicate backupPods or restorePods. This brings many benefits such as:  
+- This avoids to access volume data through host path, while host path access is privileged and may involve security escalations, which are concerned by users.
+- This enables users to to control resource (i.e., cpu, memory) allocations in a granular manner, e.g., control them per backup/restore of a volume.
+- This enhances the resilience, crash of one data movement activity won't affect others.
+- This prevents unnecessary full backup because of host path changes after workload pods restart.
+- For more information, check the design https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/blob/main/design/Implemented/vgdp-micro-service/vgdp-micro-service.md.
+
+#### Item Block concepts and ItemBlockAction (IBA) plugin
+Item Block concepts are introduced for resource backups to help to achieve multiple thread backups. Specifically, correlated resources are categorized in the same item block and item blocks could be processed concurrently in multiple threads.  
+ItemBlockAction plugin is introduced to help Velero to categorize resources into item blocks. At present, Velero provides built-in IBAs for pods and PVCs and Velero also supports customized IBAs for any resources.  
+In v1.15, Velero doesn't support multiple thread process of item blocks though item block concepts and IBA plugins are fully supported. The multiple thread support will be delivered in future releases.  
+For more information, check the design https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/blob/main/design/backup-performance-improvements.md.  
+
+#### Node selection for repository maintenance job
+Repository maintenance are resource consuming tasks, Velero now allows you to configure the nodes to run repository maintenance jobs, so that you can run repository maintenance jobs in idle nodes or avoid them to run in nodes hosting critical workloads.  
+To support the configuration, a new repository maintenance configuration configMap is introduced.  
+For more information, check the document https://velero.io/docs/v1.15/repository-maintenance/.  
+
+#### Backup PVC read-only configuration
+In 1.15, Velero allows you to configure the data mover backupPods to read-only mount the backupPVCs. In this way, the data mover expose process could be significantly accelerated for some storages (i.e., ceph).  
+To support the configuration, a new backup PVC configuration configMap is introduced.  
+For more information, check the document https://velero.io/docs/v1.15/data-movement-backup-pvc-configuration/.  
+
+#### Backup PVC storage class configuration
+In 1.15, Velero allows you to configure the storageclass used by the data mover backupPods. In this way, the provision of backupPVCs don't need to adhere to the same pattern as workload PVCs, e.g., for a backupPVC, it only needs one replica, whereas, the a workload PVC may have multiple replicas.  
+To support the configuration, the same backup PVC configuration configMap is used.  
+For more information, check the document https://velero.io/docs/v1.15/data-movement-backup-pvc-configuration/.  
+
+#### Backup repository data cache configuration
+The backup repository may need to cache data on the client side during various repository operations, i.e., read, write, maintenance, etc. The cache consumes the root file system space of the pod where the repository access happens.  
+In 1.15, Velero allows you to configure the total size of the cache per repository. In this way, if your pod doesn't have enough space in its root file system, the pod won't be evicted due to running out of ephemeral storage.  
+To support the configuration, a new backup repository configuration configMap is introduced.  
+For more information, check the document https://velero.io/docs/v1.15/backup-repository-configuration/.  
+
+#### Performance improvements
+In 1.15, several performance related issues/enhancements are included, which makes significant performance improvements in specific scenarios:  
+- There was a memory leak of Velero server after plugin calls, now it is fixed, see issue https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/issues/7925
+- The `client-burst/client-qps` parameters are automatically inherited to plugins, so that you can use the same velero server parameters to accelerate the plugin executions when large number of API server calls happen, see issue https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/issues/7806
+- Maintenance of Kopia repository takes huge memory in scenarios that huge number of files have been backed up, Velero 1.15 has included the Kopia upstream enhancement to fix the problem, see issue https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/issues/7510
+
+### Runtime and dependencies
+Golang runtime: v1.22.8  
+kopia: v0.17.0
+
+### Limitations/Known issues
+#### Read-only backup PVC may not work on SELinux environments
+Due to an issue of Kubernetes upstream, if a volume is mounted as read-only in SELinux environments, the read privilege is not granted to any user, as a result, the data mover backup will fail. On the other hand, the backupPVC must be mounted as read-only in order to accelerate the data mover expose process.  
+Therefore, a user option is added in the same backup PVC configuration configMap, once the option is enabled, the backupPod container will run as a super privileged container and disable SELinux access control. If you have concern in this super privileged container or you have configured [pod security admissions](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/security/pod-security-admission/) and don't allow super privileged containers, you will not be able to use this read-only backupPVC feature and lose the benefit to accelerate the data mover expose process.  
+
+### Breaking changes
+#### Deprecation of Restic
+Restic path for fs-backup is in deprecation process starting from 1.15. According to [Velero deprecation policy](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/blob/v1.15/GOVERNANCE.md#deprecation-policy), for 1.15, if Restic path is used the backup/restore of fs-backup still creates and succeeds, but you will see warnings in below scenarios:  
+- When `--uploader-type=restic` is used in Velero installation
+- When Restic path is used to create backup/restore of fs-backup
+
+#### node-agent configuration name is configurable
+Previously, a fixed name is searched for node-agent configuration configMap. Now in 1.15, Velero allows you to customize the name of the configMap, on the other hand, the name must be specified by node-agent server parameter `node-agent-configmap`.  
+
+#### Repository maintenance job configurations in Velero server parameter are moved to repository maintenance job configuration configMap
+In 1.15, below Velero server parameters for repository maintenance jobs are moved to the repository maintenance job configuration configMap. While for back compatibility reason, the same Velero sever parameters are preserved as is. But the configMap is recommended and the same values in the configMap take preference if they exist in both places:  
+```
+--keep-latest-maintenance-jobs
+--maintenance-job-cpu-request
+--maintenance-job-mem-request
+--maintenance-job-cpu-limit
+--maintenance-job-mem-limit
+```
+
+#### Changing PVC selected-node feature is deprecated
+In 1.15, the [Changing PVC selected-node feature](https://velero.io/docs/v1.15/restore-reference/#changing-pvc-selected-node) enters deprecation process and will be removed in future releases according to [Velero deprecation policy](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/blob/v1.15/GOVERNANCE.md#deprecation-policy). Usage of this feature for any purpose is not recommended.

+https://velero.io/docs/v1.16/
+
+### Upgrading
+https://velero.io/docs/v1.16/upgrade-to-1.16/
+
+### Highlights
+#### Windows cluster support
+In v1.16, Velero supports to run in Windows clusters and backup/restore Windows workloads, either stateful or stateless:
+ * Hybrid build and all-in-one image: the build process is enhanced to build an all-in-one image for hybrid CPU architecture and hybrid platform. For more information, check the design https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/blob/main/design/multiple-arch-build-with-windows.md
+ * Deployment in Windows clusters: Velero node-agent, data mover pods and maintenance jobs now support to run in both linux and Windows nodes
+ * Data mover backup/restore Windows workloads: Velero built-in data mover supports Windows workloads throughout its full cycle, i.e., discovery, backup, restore, pre/post hook, etc. It automatically identifies Windows workloads and schedules data mover pods to the right group of nodes
+
+Check the epic issue https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/issues/8289 for more information.  
+
+#### Parallel Item Block backup
+v1.16 now supports to back up item blocks in parallel. Specifically, during backup, correlated resources are grouped in item blocks and Velero backup engine creates a thread pool to back up the item blocks in parallel. This significantly improves the backup throughput, especially when there are large scale of resources.  
+Pre/post hooks also belongs to item blocks, so will also run in parallel along with the item blocks.  
+Users are allowed to configure the parallelism through the `--item-block-worker-count` Velero server parameter. If not configured, the default parallelism is 1.  
+
+For more information, check issue https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/issues/8334.  
+
+#### Data mover restore enhancement in scalability
+In previous releases, for each volume of WaitForFirstConsumer mode, data mover restore is only allowed to happen in the node that the volume is attached. This severely degrades the parallelism and the balance of node resource(CPU, memory, network bandwidth) consumption for data mover restore (https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/issues/8044).  
+
+In v1.16, users are allowed to configure data mover restores running and spreading evenly across all nodes in the cluster. The configuration is done through a new flag `ignoreDelayBinding` in node-agent configuration (https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/issues/8242).  
+
+#### Data mover enhancements in observability 
+In 1.16, some observability enhancements are added:
+ * Output various statuses of intermediate objects for failures of data mover backup/restore (https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/issues/8267)
+ * Output the errors when Velero fails to delete intermediate objects during clean up (https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/issues/8125)
+
+The outputs are in the same node-agent log and enabled automatically.  
+
+#### CSI snapshot backup/restore enhancement in usability
+In previous releases, a unnecessary VolumeSnapshotContent object is retained for each backup and synced to other clusters sharing the same backup storage location. And during restore, the retained VolumeSnapshotContent is also restored unnecessarily.  
+
+In 1.16, the retained VolumeSnapshotContent is removed from the backup, so no unnecessary CSI objects are synced or restored.  
+
+For more information, check issue https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/issues/8725.  
+
+#### Backup Repository Maintenance enhancement in resiliency and observability
+In v1.16, some enhancements of backup repository maintenance are added to improve the observability and resiliency:
+ * A new backup repository maintenance history section, called `RecentMaintenance`, is added to the BackupRepository CR. Specifically, for each BackupRepository, including start/completion time, completion status and error message. (https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/issues/7810)
+ * Running maintenance jobs are now recaptured after Velero server restarts. (https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/issues/7753)
+ * The maintenance job will not be launched for readOnly BackupStorageLocation. (https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/issues/8238)
+ * The backup repository will not try to initialize a new repository for readOnly BackupStorageLocation. (https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/issues/8091)
+ * Users now are allowed to configure the intervals of an effective maintenance in the way of `normalGC`, `fastGC` and `eagerGC`, through the `fullMaintenanceInterval` parameter in backupRepository configuration. (https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/issues/8364)
+
+#### Volume Policy enhancement of filtering volumes by PVC labels
+In v1.16, Volume Policy is extended to support filtering volumes by PVC labels. (https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/issues/8256).   
+
+#### Resource Status restore per object
+In v1.16, users are allowed to define whether to restore resource status per object through an annotation `velero.io/restore-status` set on the object. (https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/issues/8204).  
+
+#### Velero Restore Helper binary is merged into Velero image 
+In v1.16, Velero banaries, i.e., velero, velero-helper and velero-restore-helper, are all included into the single Velero image. (https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/issues/8484).  
+

+### Limitations/Known issues
+#### Limitations of Windows support
+  * fs-backup is not supported for Windows workloads and so fs-backup runs only in linux nodes for linux workloads

+## v1.17
+
+### Download
+https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/releases/tag/v1.17.0
+
+### Container Image
+`velero/velero:v1.17.0`
+
+### Documentation
+https://velero.io/docs/v1.17/
+
+### Upgrading
+https://velero.io/docs/v1.17/upgrade-to-1.17/
+
+### Highlights
+#### Modernized fs-backup
+In v1.17, Velero fs-backup is modernized to the micro-service architecture, which brings below benefits:  
+- Many features that were absent to fs-backup are now available, i.e., load concurrency control, cancel, resume on restart, etc.
+- fs-backup is more robust, the running backup/restore could survive from node-agent restart; and the resource allocation is in a more granular manner, the failure of one backup/restore won't impact others.  
+- The resource usage of node-agent is steady, especially, the node-agent pods won't request huge memory and hold it for a long time.  
+
+Check design https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/blob/main/design/vgdp-micro-service-for-fs-backup/vgdp-micro-service-for-fs-backup.md for more details.  
+
+#### fs-backup support Windows cluster
+In v1.17, Velero fs-backup supports to backup/restore Windows workloads. By leveraging the new micro-service architecture for fs-backup, data mover pods could run in Windows nodes and backup/restore Windows volumes. Together with CSI snapshot data movement for Windows which is delivered in 1.16, Velero now supports Windows workload backup/restore in full scenarios.  
+Check design https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/blob/main/design/vgdp-micro-service-for-fs-backup/vgdp-micro-service-for-fs-backup.md for more details.  
+
+#### Volume group snapshot support
+In v1.17, Velero supports [volume group snapshots](https://kubernetes.io/blog/2024/12/18/kubernetes-1-32-volume-group-snapshot-beta/) which is a beta feature in Kubernetes upstream, for both CSI snapshot backup and CSI snapshot data movement. This allows a snapshot to be taken from multiple volumes at the same point-in-time to achieve write order consistency, which is helpful to achieve better data consistency when multiple volumes being backed up are correlated.  
+Check the document https://velero.io/docs/main/volume-group-snapshots/ for more details.  
+
+#### Priority class support
+In v1.17, [Kubernetes priority class](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/scheduling-eviction/pod-priority-preemption/#priorityclass) is supported for all modules across Velero. Specifically, users are allowed to configure priority class to Velero server, node-agent, data mover pods, backup repository maintenance jobs separately.  
+Check design https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/blob/main/design/Implemented/priority-class-name-support_design.md for more details.  
+
+#### Scalability and Resiliency improvements of data movers
+##### Reduce excessive number of data mover pods in Pending state
+In v1.17, Velero allows users to set a `PrepareQueueLength` in the node-agent configuration, data mover pods and volumes out of this number won't be created until data path quota is available, so that excessive number cluster resources won't  be taken unnecessarily, which is particularly helpful for large scale environments. This improvement applies to all kinds of data movements, including fs-backup and CSI snapshot data movement.  
+Check design https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/blob/main/design/node-agent-load-soothing.md for more details.  
+
+##### Enhancement on node-agent restart handling for data movements
+In v1.17, data movements in all phases could survive from node-agent restart and resume themselves; when a data movement gets orphaned in special cases, e.g., cluster node absent, it could also be canceled appropriately after the restart. This improvement applies to all kinds of data movements, including fs-backup and CSI snapshot data movement.  
+Check issue https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/issues/8534 for more details.  
+
+##### CSI snapshot data movement restore node-selection and node-selection by storage class
+In v1.17, CSI snapshot data movement restore acquires the same node-selection capability as backup, that is, users could specify which nodes can/cannot run data mover pods for both backup and restore now. And users are also allowed to configure the node-selection per storage class, which is particularly helpful to the environments where a storage class are not usable by all cluster nodes.  
+Check issue https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/issues/8186 and https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/issues/8223 for more details.  
+
+#### Include/exclude policy support for resource policy
+In v1.17, Velero resource policy supports `includeExcludePolicy` besides the existing `volumePolicy`. This allows users to set include/exclude filters for resources in a resource policy configmap, so that these filters are reusable among multiple backups.  
+Check the document https://velero.io/docs/main/resource-filtering/#creating-resource-policies:~:text=resources%3D%22*%22-,Resource%20policies,-Velero%20provides%20resource for more details.  
+
+### Runtime and dependencies
+Golang runtime: 1.24.6  
+kopia: 0.21.1  
+
+### Limitations/Known issues
+
+### Breaking changes
+#### Deprecation of Restic
+According to [Velero deprecation policy](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero/blob/main/GOVERNANCE.md#deprecation-policy), backup of fs-backup under Restic path is removed in v1.17, so `--uploader-type=restic` is not a valid installation configuration anymore. This means you cannot create a backup under Restic path, but you can still restore from the previous backups under Restic path until v1.19.  
+
+#### Repository maintenance job configurations are removed from Velero server parameter
+Since the repository maintenance job configurations are moved to repository maintenance job configMap, in v1.17 below Velero sever parameters are removed:
+- --keep-latest-maintenance-jobs
+- --maintenance-job-cpu-request
+- --maintenance-job-mem-request
+- --maintenance-job-cpu-limit
+- --maintenance-job-mem-limit

+
+### Container Image
+`velero/velero:v1.8.0`
+
+### Documentation
+https://velero.io/docs/v1.8
+
+### Upgrading
+https://velero.io/docs/v1.8/upgrade-to-1.8/
+
+### Highlights
+
+#### Velero plugins now support handling volumes created by the CSI drivers of cloud providers
+Versions 1.4 of the Velero plugins for AWS, Azure and GCP now support snapshotting and restoring the persistent volumes provisioned by CSI driver via the APIs of the cloud providers. With this enhancement, users can backup and restore the persistent volumes on these cloud providers without using the Velero CSI plugin. The CSI plugin will remain beta and the feature flag `EnableCSI` will be disabled by default.
+
+For the version of the plugins and the CSI drivers they support respectively please see the table:
+
+| Plugin | Version | CSI Driver |
+| --- | ----------- | ---------- |
+| velero-plugin-for-aws | v1.4.0 | ebs.csi.aws.com |
+| velero-plugin-for-microsoft-azure | v1.4.0 | disk.csi.azure.com |
+| velero-plugin-for-gcp | v1.4.0 | pd.csi.storage.gke.io |
+
+#### IPv6 dual stack support
+We've verified the functionality of Velero on IPv6 dual stack by successfully running the E2E test on IPv6 dual stack environment.
+#### Refactor the controllers using Kubebuilder v3
+In this release we continued our code modernization work, rewriting some controllers using Kubebuilder v3. This work is ongoing and we will continue to make progress in future releases.
+#### Enhancements to E2E test cases
+More test cases have been added to the E2E test suite to improve the release health.
+#### Respect the cron setting of scheduled backup
+The creation time is now taken into account to calculate the next run for scheduled backup.
+
+#### Deleting BSLs also cleans up related resources
+
+When a Backup Storage Location (BSL) is deleted, backup and Restic repository resources will also be deleted.
+
+#### Breaking changes
+
+Starting in v1.8, Velero will only support Kubernetes v1 CRD meaning that Velero v1.8+ will only run on Kubernetes v1.16+. Before upgrading, make sure you are running a supported Kubernetes version. For more information, see our [compatibility matrix](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero#velero-compatibility-matrix).
+
+#### Upload Progress Monitoring and Item Snapshotter
+Item Snapshotter plugin API was merged.  This will support both Upload Progress
+monitoring and the planned Data Mover.  Upload Progress monitoring PRs are
+in progress for 1.9.

+Implement wildcard namespace pattern expansion for backup namespace includes/excludes.
+
+This change adds support for wildcard patterns (*, ?, [abc], {a,b,c}) in namespace includes and excludes during backup operations. 
+When wildcard patterns are detected, they are expanded against the list of active namespaces in the cluster before the backup proceeds.
+
+Key features:
+- Wildcard patterns in namespace includes/excludes are automatically detected and expanded
+- Pattern validation ensures unsupported patterns (regex, consecutive asterisks) are rejected
+- Empty wildcard results (e.g., "invalid*" matching no namespaces) correctly result in empty backups
+- Exact namespace names and "*" continue to work as before (no expansion needed)
