May 1, 2025

May 2025 monthly summary for openshift/release focused on CI pipeline optimization and maintenance. The primary accomplishment was cleaning up the CI pipeline by removing the insights-operator-test-time-periodic job across release branches and master. This was achieved by deleting the corresponding configurations from the CI operator YAMLs and periodic job definitions, reducing unnecessary test workload and streamlining CI/CD. No new customer-facing features were deployed; the work improves reliability, reduces resource consumption, and accelerates feedback loops in the release process. Commit MR: a94a03541d660791f883639c8ec9e78badc1abcd (Merge request for removing insights-operator-test-time-periodic for IO (#65457)).
