Docker and Kubernetes integrations compatibility matrix?

Problem

Two example integrations of Docker and Kubernetes are OpenShift and Rancher Labs AFAIK.

Sadly but in fact we have not completely escaped us from the dependency hell.

Question: is there an established source of information which distributions here package which versions (like Ubutu/Debian version chronicles on Wikipedia)?

Background.

Not-so-obvious facts for newbies (judged by my learnings so far) are (defining acceptable technical usability to a level that you do no need hours to debug even 101 tutorials):

  • Kubernetes is very dynamic project and it is not so easy to deploy it as-is (but seem to get better with each version, also thanks to kubeadm I would say)



  • Kubernetes does not support any Docker versions coming after the community fork to moby and Docker CE.

Solution

Every Kubernetes release has an External Dependencies section in the respective Changelog. E.g.:

CHANGELOG-1.14:


The list of validated docker versions has changed. 1.11.1 and 1.12.1
have been removed. The current list is 1.13.1, 17.03, 17.06, 17.09,
18.06, 18.09.

CHANGELOG-1.13:


The list of validated docker versions remain unchanged at 1.11.1,
1.12.1, 1.13.1, 17.03, 17.06, 17.09, 18.06 since Kubernetes 1.12.

CHANGELOG-1.12:


The list of validated docker versions was updated to 1.11.1, 1.12.1,
1.13.1, 17.03, 17.06, 17.09, 18.06.

and so on...
