How to detect and prevent memory leaks in Kubernetes applications

In our last blog, we talked about the importance of setting memory requests when deploying applications to Kubernetes. We explained how memory requests lets you specify how much memory (RAM for short) Kubernetes should reserve for a pod before deploying it. However, this only helps your pod get deployed. What happens when your pod is running and gradually consumes more RAM over time?

Is this key finding from DORA Report 2023 holding back your team?

What's a key finding from the 2023 State of DevOps report? Nathen Harvey shared with us that teams' change review time is holding back their software delivery performance. You can use the DORA metrics to alleviate this bottleneck. Give Sleuth a try and see how we give teams actionable insights on how to improve, no-code automations to instantly ship improvements, and metrics to measure their impact — all in a way that both managers and developers love.

Build Your Own Network with Linux and Wireguard

Last Christmas, I bought my wife “Explain the cloud like I am 10” after she told me many times that it was hard for her to relate to what I am doing in my daily work at Qovery. While so far, I have been the sole reader to enjoy the book, I was wondering during my lecture if there were any resources to explain how to build all that. Most topics are software oriented.. So, in this article, I am going to explain how to build your own cloud network 🎊

Internal Developer Platform vs Internal Developer Portal: Solving for a Central System of Record, and Action

What support do developers need at large enterprises to be productive? We often fall into the trap of evaluating coders on output, maybe even innate talent. We think that the best way to build secure and efficient software is to hire 10X developers, and get out of their way. But even if the individuals have massive intellectual firepower, operational work grows like entropy in the system.

Securing open source software dependencies in the public cloud

I recently recorded a Lightboard presentation on securing open source software dependencies in the public cloud. This blog summarises, and expands upon, some of the key elements from that presentation: I think about this topic through two lenses: software supply chains and updating software dependencies while maintaining stability.
