As web applications become more complex, software engineering teams must rely on many different products and services to create the best developer experience. The application development ecosystem has grown beyond version control and hosting deployment. Manually managing the deployment of new features across all services can create a serious bottleneck in the software development lifecycle. It also introduces the risk of human error.

As I’ve written about before, Epinio is built to be very flexible. In this blog, I will highlight several places we can hook into the rest of your existing infrastructure to give you a better experience. If you’re new to Epinio, it’s the application development engine for Kubernetes that lets you to go from code to URL in one step.

A few days ago, I chatted with Florian Suchan (CTO and Co-Founder at Papershift) about their journey to easy infrastructure autoscaling. As you will see in the article, they tried a wide range of solutions before finding the right fit; if you feel you’re going through the same journey, this article is for you!

We created experimental Docker image which tries to ensure high availability of your web service by dynamically refreshing Cloudflare DNS with healthy endpoints.

Over the last couple of years, Kubernetes (often called K8s) has become the most popular and well-known container orchestration system for automating application deployment, scaling, and management. Scheduling containers at scale in a cloud-native ecosystem is central to the technology. Kubernetes itself is an open-source project, and as such presents challenges for many enterprises especially in regulated industries with strong security requirements and formal SLA commitments.

At Civo we aim to provide users with the tools and knowledge to succeed in the cloud native landscape. So, we’re super excited to announce a brand new tech event, Civo Navigate! Whether you’re looking to join us in person or take part in the event, here’s your guide to all things Civo Navigate.

Kubernetes is the industry's most popular open-source platform for container orchestration. It helps you automate many tasks related to container management. Companies use it to solve their problems related to deployment, scalability, testing, management, etc. However, Kubernetes is complex and requires a steep learning curve. In this article, we will go through some common Kubernetes pitfalls most companies fall to.

While the cloud offers significant benefits compared to traditional on-premise infrastructure, its inherent elasticity and scalability lead to uncontrolled costs. Cloud costs can be opaque and difficult to analyze — and without some system of identifying the source of costs and how to manage them — they can quickly undermine your profit margins. Since Qovery makes it easy to create on-demand environments, it can drastically grow your cloud costs.
