+## Serving
+
+[Release Notes](https://github.com/knative/serving/releases/tag/knative-v1.11.0)
+
+### 🚨 Breaking or Notable
+- Activator uses TLS 1.3 as the minimum version when internal encryption is activated for communication with queue-proxy (#13887, @izabelacg)
+- Domain mapping controller logic is now merged with the Serving controller. Domainmapping webhook is merged with the Serving webhook. (#14082, @skonto)
+- DomainMapping/v1alpha1 is deprecated - use v1beta1 APIs (#14058, @dprotaso)
+
+### 💫 New Features & Changes
+- A new flag is introduced `queueproxy.resource-defaults` that sets resource requests, limits for Queue Proxy when enabled (applies only to cpu and memory). (#14039, @skonto)
+- Activator now has a separate service account, reducing its privileges to the required minimum. (#14133, @davidhadas)
+- Queue proxy resources can be configured via annotations at the service level.  The resource percentage annotation is now deprecated. (#14038, @skonto)
+- Sets DefaultDomain to cluster's domain instead of hardcoded `svc.cluster.local` (#13964, @kauana)
+
+
+### 🐞Bug Fixes
+- Autoscaler metric are validated with global autoscaling class if no class annotation is set. (#13978, @xtreme-vikram-yadav)
+- Drop `cluster-autoscaler.kubernetes.io/safe-to-evict` annotations on our control plane to allow nodes to drain (#14035, @dprotaso)
+- Fix activator load balancing when using unbounded concurrency and when you have two instances of a revision (#14028, @dprotaso)
+- Queue proxy metrics reporting period is now supported for both prometheus and opencensus.
+  This allows fine-grained control of how often metrics are exported via a new config map attribute. (#14019, @skonto)
+- Tag to digest min TLS version is 1.2 and can be configured higher using the controller environment variable `TAG_TO_DIGEST_TLS_MIN_VERSION` and supports values `"1.2"` and `"1.3"` (#13962, @dprotaso)
+

+- PingSource supports sending events to TLS endpoints, minimum TLS version is v1.2 (#6965, @pierDipi)
+- Source duck compliant source now create EventTypes for KResources, not just brokers (#7032, @matzew)
+- The ApiServerSource controller now sets the K_CA_CERTS environment variable when creating the adapter and the sink has CACerts defined. (#6897, @vishal-chdhry)
+- The ApiServerSource controller now sets the K_CA_CERTS environment variable when creating the adapter and the sink has CACerts defined. (#6920, @vishal-chdhry)
+- The BROKER field of the EventType is deprecated, and is replaced by a KRef reference, pointing to the broker. In the future Knative will be able to support other addressables with EventType, instead of just a broker (#6870, @matzew)
