December 2024 highlights: Reliability improvements for PodDisruptionBudgets across OpenShift Knative components and test-suite simplification. Delivered a default minAvailable: 1 for PodDisruptionBudgets in Knative Serving (serverless-operator) with tests to verify behavior; removed an unsupported Kourier-OSSM integration test and consolidated shared test code; centralized minAvailable configuration by moving it from a patch file to service/operator configuration in the serving component. These changes reduce maintenance toil, cut test failures, and increase availability during voluntary disruptions. Technologies demonstrated include Kubernetes PodDisruptionBudget, Knative Serving, OSSM integration, operator-driven configuration, and test modernization. Business value: higher production reliability, faster feedback for developers, and streamlined deployment operations.
