-## Core Kubernetes components
+
+Kubernetes ships binaries for each component as well as a standard set of client
+applications to bootstrap or interact with a cluster. Components like the
+Kube API Server are capable of running within container images inside of a
+cluster. Those components are also shipped in container images as part of the
+official release process. All binaries as well as container images are available
+for multiple operating systems as well as hardware architectures.
+
+## Container Images
+
+All Kubernetes container images are deployed to the
+[k8s.gcr.io](https://console.cloud.google.com/gcr/images/k8s-artifacts-prod/GLOBAL)
+container registry.
+
+{{< feature-state for_k8s_version="v1.24" state="alpha" >}}
+
+From the beginning of Kubernetes {{< param "version" >}}, the following
+container images are signed using [cosign](https://github.com/sigstore/cosign)
+signatures:
+

+All container images are available for multiple architectures, whereas the
+container runtime should choose the correct one based on the underlying
+platform. It is also possible to pull a dedicated architecture by suffixing the
+container image name, for example
+[`k8s.gcr.io/kube-apiserver-arm64:{{< param "fullversion" >}}`][0-arm64]. All
+those derivations are signed in the same way as the multi-architecture manifest lists.

 The Kubernetes command-line tool, [kubectl](/docs/reference/kubectl/kubectl/), allows
 you to run commands against Kubernetes clusters.
 
 You can use kubectl to deploy applications, inspect and manage cluster resources,
 and view logs. For more information including a complete list of kubectl operations, see the
 [`kubectl` reference documentation](/docs/reference/kubectl/).
