Internal Developer Portals (IDPs) are no longer just an experimental concept—they’re now a foundational component of modern software delivery. As engineering organizations look to reduce cognitive load, increase self-service, and streamline infrastructure workflows, IDPs have emerged as the most effective way to productize platform engineering.

We’re excited to share that Icinga for Kubernetes v0.3.0 is here! This release is packed with features designed to make monitoring your Kubernetes environments smoother, smarter, and more efficient. Let’s take a closer look at what’s new.

At Qovery, our goal is simple: eliminate the grunt work of DevOps. The idea of an assistant that can understand developer intent and autonomously take action on infrastructure has always felt like the holy grail. In February 2025, we started building that assistant - our DevOps Copilot. Today, our Agentic DevOps Copilot is live in Alpha. It helps developers automate deployments, optimize infrastructure, and answer advanced configuration questions. But getting here took multiple iterations.

As organizations move beyond traditional hypervisors, Harvester continues to lead the way as an open source, Kubernetes-native virtualization solution. With the release of Harvester 1.5, users now have greater flexibility and ecosystem alignment than ever before—with General Availability (GA) for ARM64 and support for CSI-compatible storage backends. Harvester is part of a growing shift toward cloud-native infrastructure that unifies VMs and containers under the Kubernetes API.

Not in the least because it allows monitoring to be a purely operations affair, instead of having to instrument each and every application individually. The security-conscious SRE and SRE manager will immediately ask the question: is this secure? And how about this claim that HTTPS traffic can be monitored?
