2.4.4. hypershift.openshift.io API
You can use the hypershift.openshift.io API resources, such as, HostedCluster and NodePool, to create and manage OpenShift Container Platform clusters at scale. A HostedCluster resource contains the control plane and common data plane configuration. When you create a HostedCluster resource, you have a fully functional control plane with no attached nodes. A NodePool resource is a scalable set of worker nodes that is attached to a HostedCluster resource.
The API version policy generally aligns with the policy for Kubernetes API versioning.
Updates for hosted control planes involve updating the hosted cluster and the node pools. For more information, see "Updates for hosted control planes".
