While it is still hard to predict what to expect from future OpenShift versions, we can derive some of this information from the technology preview features that you can find in the OCP 3.9 release notes as well as in the latest Red Hat events such as Red Hat Summit 2018, which took place from May 7 to May 11 in 2018. The good part is that the OCP software release cycle is every 3 months, which means that by the time you read this book, there is a chance that we will already have a new version of OpenShift coming out. The following table shows the difference between the versions of OCP in terms of Tech Preview (TP) and General Availability (GA):
| Features | OCP 3.7 | OCP 3.9 |
OCP 3.10, OCP 3.11 |
| Prometheus cluster monitoring | TP | TP | GA* |
| CRI-O | TP | GA* | |
| CLI plugins | TP | TP | GA* |
| Device plugins | TP | GA | |
| CPU manager | TP | TP* | |
