Having a deep understanding of a Kubernetes cluster is important: the right insights allow you to monitor the performance and health of the cluster, which is necessary for ensuring that applications are running smoothly and that any potential issues can be identified and addressed quickly. As your Kubernetes cluster develops, so does the need for monitoring and troubleshooting.

Monitoring tools aid DevOps teams in finding and resolving performance issues more quickly. With the popularity of Kubernetes and Docker continuing to grow, it's critical to establish proper container monitoring and log management practices early on. This is no simple task. Docker container monitoring is quite difficult. Creating a strategy and a suitable monitoring system is not at all easy.

We are excited to announce that Qovery now supports AWS Security Token Service (STS) for all our plans! AWS STS is a web service that enables you to request temporary, limited-privilege credentials for AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) users or for federated users who sign in using Single Sign-On (SSO). These credentials are then used to access AWS resources and services.

2022 was a year of tremendous growth for us here at Qovery. We released Qovery V3, grew our customer base, saw our platform use grow exponentially, met our target revenue, and more! Thanks to the Qovery team for their hard work, we achieved an impressive amount in 2022. It’s truly a joy to work with brilliant people who live out our daily values - humility, hard work, and customer obsession! Thanks to our customers’ faith in us, we can do what we love and continue to grow. So, thank you!

Our last Qovery Demo Day took place on a live on Tuesday, 20th of December. This event aims to give you some insights into what we did during the past month and what’s next and showcase some of our new features. This Demo Day was a bit special, as it was the last of the year, and to celebrate, we brought the entire team along to do a retrospective of the year and answer any questions you might have about our product.

Businesses around the world are increasingly turning to container technology to streamline the process of deploying and managing complex, cloud native applications. Containers bundle all necessary dependencies into a single package, offering portability, speed, security, scalability, and ease of management, making them the preferred choice over traditional virtual machines (VMs).

I recently had the opportunity to speak with Kevin Maschtaler, the Platform and Reliability lead at Tint, about their experience with Qovery. Tint began using Qovery in early 2022 to automate their infrastructure and support their team and customer growth. In this article, we will explore Tint's journey with Qovery, including how we continue to assist them with compliance in the testing and release process and how we help them save on cloud costs through our partnerships.
