Kubernetes CronJobs are a feature that lets you automate tasks in a Kubernetes cluster. They let you schedule and run jobs on a regular basis, making them good for tasks like data backups, database maintenance, log rotation, and more. CronJobs help make operations easier and reduce manual work, letting you focus on other important parts of your application. In this guide, we will explain what CronJobs are and how they are different from regular Kubernetes Jobs.

At Qovery, we're thrilled to introduce a groundbreaking way for AWS users to drastically reduce their costs — by up to 60% on EC2 instances. This significant reduction is made possible through the synergy of AWS Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) with Karpenter, AWS's powerful autoscaler.

On your bedside table sits a piece of software designed to wake you up. It loves bothering you when something goes wrong — and making it your responsibility to sort it out Meet the new incident.io On-call app. We designed it this way: to be as interruptive as possible. Whether you’re watching telly, at the gym, or as mentioned, fast asleep, it’ll get you. Got called even though you’re in silent mode? Great! We’ve done our job properly.

Let’s face it – pull requests can be painful. They’re often time-consuming, fraught with merge conflicts, and can leave you waiting around on others or totally disrupt your coding flow. But what if there was an easier way to manage these requests without all the hassles and delays?

DevOps practices have revolutionized how teams build, test, deploy, and manage applications, enabling rapid delivery without compromising quality. Central to this paradigm shift are containerization technologies like Docker and orchestration platforms like Kubernetes. In this article, we’ll explore how containerization and DevOps intersect, and how leveraging Docker and Kubernetes can optimize deployment processes.

DevOps has emerged as a crucial methodology for software development and deployment. DevOps bridges the gap between development and operations teams, fostering collaboration and enabling continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD). At the heart of DevOps lies automation, which streamlines deployment pipelines, enhances productivity, and ensures rapid, reliable software delivery.

After many cups of coffee and takeaway pizzas, something changed in the world of SQL Prompt in November 2023. For the first time in SQL Prompt’s history, our engineering team at Redgate brought AI to its breadth of capabilities and called it Prompt+. Using generative AI-powered insights and context-based awareness, Prompt+ takes natural language queries and turns them into SQL coding suggestions.

Kubernetes revolutionised container orchestration, allowing faster and more reliable application deployment and management. But even though it transformed the world of DevOps, it introduced new challenges around security maintenance, networking and application lifecycle management.
