Software development no more emphasizes “final delivery” or deployment of a project. It is more about “continuous delivery and integration” today. The market also demands rapid delivery and updates without missing out on elements like ‘quality’ and ‘innovation.’ So, instead of building a super-robust well-tested product at once, developers focus on faster and bug-free releases to create a reliable product over time.

Pricing is a complex topic matter, and there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to pricing. Few things impact growth and revenue as much as your pricing. Finding the right balance between value and revenue will make or break your business. While most founders have a clear product vision and have thought through things like their go-to-market strategy or hiring plans, surprisingly, few have an idea about what their pricing should look like.

Developers love containers for their portability and flexibility. Suitable for today’s cloud-native environment and agile development requirements, containers make it super-fast to develop, test, and run applications. Besides this, they are lightweight and can optimize the platform (and the host OS) they are deployed on. Now, for powerful applications with hundreds of containers, the platform should also be portable, flexible, extensible, and efficient.

Big news! The Qovery Terraform Provider is now publicly available for everyone! This article will show you what you can do and why you should consider using Terraform with Qovery.

When we talk about various deployment and infrastructure provisioning choices on AWS, each option serves a particular set of users and needs. Some of Amazon's most common deployment services include Elastic Beanstalk, CloudFormation, and CodeDeploy. In containerization, there are options like ECS, EKS, Fargate, etc.

When the CTO of this growing company (freshly acquired by a billion-dollar company) contacted me, he was concerned by the ability of his team to deliver what they committed to for the current year. His main issue was 15 engineers working in the same development environment. Can you imagine developing on the same workstation? Things will get worst as they plan to quadruple their engineering team size in the next 18 months.

The container orchestration tool Kubernetes helps an increasing number of companies to automate, scale, and manage their containerized application deployments. According to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation, the open-source software foundation that hosts and maintains Kubernetes, adoption of the platform increased from seventy-eight percent in 2019 to eighty-three percent in 2020.

Last week I created a guide for our users to set up an NGINX service as an API Gateway with Qovery. The API gateway must redirect the incoming traffic to the appropriate service with the correct port. My problem is that the API Gateway does not know the ports exposed for every service. In this post, I will show you a quick tip on finding the port of a Kubernetes service with a single DNS request. Let's go!
