About Kubernete version support with PegaPlatform Containerization
I'm currently using 8.7 and considering upgrading to 24.1.
I am considering installing Pega on AWS EKS using helm charts as referenced on the following page: https://pegasystems.github.io/pega-helm-charts/
Currently, the versions of EKS, Pega, and Helm Charts are:
EKS: v.1.31 Pega: v24.1 Helm Chart: v3.16.0
Please let me know if there is a recommended version.

Hi, in general, if installing or upgrading to any version of Infinity, then you should always use the latest Helm Charts available which are supported by your preferred version of Kubernetes.
So, in your example, Infinity 24.1 was released on April 16, 2024. At that time the latest Pega Chart version was 3.17.1. Pega Chart 3.17.1 was released on April 10, 2024 and therefore supports Kubernetes 1.27 - 1.29. Since you would like to use 1.31 which was released August 13, 2024, you should therefore use Pega Chart 3.24.
Another way to think of it would be:
max(infinity_release_date, kubernetes_release_date) <= pega_chart_release_date
