Introducing the AI Builder Portal - the governed alternative to Lovable and Bolt.new for enterprise. Same one-click builder experience, running on your Kubernetes cluster, under your governance. Romaric founded Qovery to make Kubernetes accessible to every engineering team. He writes about platform strategy, developer experience, and the future of cloud infrastructure.

A company burned $500M in Claude credits because nobody set a limit. Uber exhausted its 2026 AI budget. Microsoft canceled Claude Code licenses. The problem isn't AI - it's the total absence of governance around how people use it.

May has been one of our busiest months yet for Konstruct. Across three releases, 0.5, 0.5.1, and 0.5.2, we've shipped some of the most requested platform-level changes since we launched: a unified model for sharing resources across organizations, native support for AI-driven workflows via MCP, a completely redesigned API keys experience, and a cleanup to how permissions actually work in multi-org environments. Let's walk through what shipped and why it matters.

Moving to a new platform shouldn't mean weeks of migration work before you see any value. Qovery now lets you connect your ArgoCD server and manage your existing applications directly alongside your Terraform modules, lifecycle jobs, and Qovery-native services, from a single control plane. Alessandro leads product at Qovery. He drives the changelog, roadmap, and product strategy - turning customer feedback into platform capabilities.

If you serve LLMs on Kubernetes without inference-aware routing, your load balancer is likely wasting inference capacity. Generic HTTP traffic management blindly routes requests, assuming the backends in your cluster are interchangeable. But your model-serving backends are stateful and unevenly prepared to handle any given request. As a result, requests are often routed to the backend that’s not the one best suited to respond.

Every Kubernetes environment accumulates waste over time. Teams overprovision CPU and memory requests to avoid performance risk, run idle replicas to preserve headroom, and leave Horizontal Pod Autoscalers (HPAs) untouched long after workload behavior has changed. Some of this waste can be addressed at the node level, where Datadog Cluster Autoscaling helps teams rightsize capacity.

The Observability Gap shows up the moment you try to reproduce a production bug locally. Your traces tell you a request was slow. Your logs tell you which line printed. Neither tells you what was actually on the wire: the headers, the JSON body, the surprise field your client started sending last Tuesday. Until now, closing that gap meant SSHing to a node, attaching a debugger, or shipping a sidecar through change review.
