+
+Time for a new release! Time for [Camel K 1.8 version](https://github.com/apache/camel-k/releases/tag/v1.8.0). Keep reading to discover what's new in Camel K! 
+
+This is the set of technologies on which Camel K 1.8 is based:
+
+* Apache Camel K Runtime 1.11.0
+* Apache Camel Quarkus 2.6.0
+* Apache Camel 3.14.0
+* Apache Camel Kamelets 0.7.0
+
+As usual, thanks to Apache Camel, Camel Quarkus and Kamelet Catalog contributors for the great efforts they've put in those new releases as well.
+
+## KEDA support
+
+The most remarkable feature available in this new release, is the support of [KEDA](https://keda.sh/). Thanks to this feature, you will be now able to add **autoscaling features to any kind of event**, not only based on HTTP as we used to have with Knative. Learn more about this fantastic feature reading the dedicated blog, [Camel meets Keda](/blog/2022/01/camel-keda/).
+
+## Faster Operator startup
+
+You already know, Camel K was imprinted with the concept of fast execution. One great work we carried on, was to **reduce the time to startup the operator** in less than a second. Quite remarkable and very welcome in the era of Cloud Native!
+
+## Honor HTTP proxy settings
+
+We had this feature in our TODO list since a while. Finally you will be able to automatically **configure the HTTP proxy settings** in all your `Integrations` by declaring such variables during Camel K Operator installation. Have a look a the [official documentation](/camel-k/next/configuration/http-proxy.html) for more details. 
+
+## Configurable Maven CLI options
+
+Maven is our preferred tool for managing projects dependencies. However, sometimes it is very verbose, in particular when it downloads the Internet... Jokes apart, we introduced the possibility to set the `.IntegrationPlatform.spec.build.maven.cliOption`, which will allow you **provide any `maven` configuration you want** (ie, `-V,--no-transfer-progress,-Dstyle.color=never, ...`). Your log aggregation tool will breath now.
+
+## Encapsulated configuration, volumens and properties logic into traits
+
+This is a bit an hidden feature, but you must be aware of what's behind the scenes. We moved part of the logic previously run by the `kamel run` command, into a dedicated trait, which will be in charge to take care of that aspect only. With this strategy we aim to **simplify the `Integration` configuration** and the execution which is not done via `kamel` CLI.
+
+More in detail, with this release we've moved the `-p|--property` logic into the [Camel trait](/camel-k/next/traits/camel.html). We've also created the [Mount trait](/camel-k/next/traits/mount.html) which will be take care of `--config`, `--resource` and `--volume` parameters of the `kamel run` CLI command. Nothing will change for the CLI users. If you instead are directly editing the `Integration`, be aware that we have deprecated the `.Integration.Configuration` and `Integration.Resour [...]
+
+## More Kamelet love
+
+The [Apache Camel Kamelet Catalog](/camel-kamelets/next/index.html) is already on `0.7.0` version. It's **growing and getting more mature** at each new release.
+
+## Dependencies upgrade
+
+There are several dependency upgrades. Nothing really remarkable, you can find more details on the [GitHub release page](https://github.com/apache/camel-k/releases/tag/v1.8.0).
+
+## Documentation
+
+We've worked on completing known gaps on the documentation. It worths to mention the section explaining [how to use Jitpack](/camel-k/next/configuration/dependencies.html#dependencies-kind-jitpack).
+
+## Bug fixes and test coverage
+
+As you may see in the [release page](https://github.com/apache/camel-k/releases/tag/v1.8.0) we have closed quite a good number of known bugs as well.
+
+# Thanks
+
+Thanks to all contributors who made this possible. We're happy to receive feedback on this version through our [mailing list](/community/mailing-list/), our [official chat](https://camel.zulipchat.com/) or filing an issue on [Camel K Github repository](https://github.com/apache/camel-k).
