A few days ago, I spent about an hour with James Heng (Co-Founder & CTO of Piana) about their journey from the foundation of Piana to being a growing Fintech startup. As you will see in the article, unlike many of our customers, they started with Qovery from the very beginning. In this article, you might be surprised at how fast they were able to have a stable and scalable infrastructure.

Kubernetes is now the de-facto standard for container orchestration. With more and more organizations adopting Kubernetes, it is essential that we get our fundamental ops-infra in place before any migration. In this post, we will learn about leveraging Jenkins and Spinnaker to roll out new versions of your application across different Kubernetes clusters.

This blog dives into detail about one of StackState’s most unique and powerful features, Kubernetes dependency maps. Dependency maps are Kubernetes service and infrastructure maps, enhanced with real-time topology, that show dependencies between all components at any moment in time.

Container technologies have revolutionized the field of software development. By using containers, you can bundle together an application's source code with its libraries, dependencies, and configurations, ensuring that it runs predictably and reliably on different machines. But how can you be sure that your containers are running smoothly once deployed? That's where container monitoring tools like cAdvisor come in. Below, we'll go over what cAdvisor is and the different use cases for cAdvisor.

In today's fast-paced software development world, Ephemeral Environments have emerged as a game-changer. These temporary, mirror-like copies of production environments are invaluable tools for testing code changes, debugging, and various development tasks. They offer developers a safe haven to experiment and test without impacting the stability of the production environment. One of the primary benefits of Ephemeral Environments is their fidelity to the production environment.

As we’ve shown in previous blogs, Elastic® provides a way to ingest and manage telemetry from the Kubernetes cluster and the application running on it. Elastic provides out-of-the-box dashboards to help with tracking metrics, log management and analytics, APM functionality (which also supports native OpenTelemetry), and the ability to analyze everything with AIOps features and machine learning (ML).

At Qovery, we strive to continuously improve our product to meet the ever-evolving needs of our users, making it more convenient and functional. We're proud to announce a groundbreaking update to our Preview Environment feature that we believe will transform the way engineering teams test their features. Buckle up for a journey into a world where creating production-like environments becomes a breeze!

As technology evolves in the enterprise, oftentimes the processes and tools used to manage it must also evolve. The increased adoption of Kubernetes has become a major inflection point for those of us in the monitoring and management side of the IT operations world. What has worked for decades (traditional infrastructure monitoring) has to be adjusted to the complexity and ephemeral nature of modern distributed systems where Kubernetes has a prime role.
