The headline features are pleasant: the HPA can scale to zero by default, HPA tolerance is configurable per autoscaler, and DRA device taints went stable. The part worth reading before you click &quot;Update now&quot; is shorter and less pleasant. Four changes in 1.37 can leave a Pod stuck in <code>ContainerCreating</code>, stop a kubelet from starting on a custom AMI, blank out a dashboard, or quietly change how often EKS Auto Mode evicts your Pods. None of them shows up as an API deprecation, so a clean &quot;no deprecated APIs&quot; check will not catch them.</p>
