I am excited to announce the partnership between Qovery and Doppler. Qovery is an infrastructure automation platform that helps developers deploy their applications more easily, while Doppler is a fully managed SecretOps platform that enables engineering teams to better manage their environment variables and secrets.

Shouldn’t your alerts be doing more of the work for you? A noisy channel with every alert from hundreds of monitors and microservices is a chaotic place to actually find the incidents that are impacting your customers. And it still requires a heck of a lot of human intervention. We think it’s time for something better. Today we’re releasing Alert Routing: the next phase of worry-free automation from FireHydrant.

When containers and container orchestration were introduced, they opened the possibility of helping companies utilize physical resources like CPU and memory more efficiently. But as more companies and bigger enterprises have adopted Kubernetes, FinOps professionals may wonder why their cloud bills haven’t gone down—or worse, why they have increased.

Logistics does not only involve getting company resources from point A to point B. When a company has a logistics arm, they also need to develop the practice of field service management. This applies to any kind of customer-facing logistics, whether they are service vehicles for on-site support or company cars for client visits. Unfortunately, some organizations are immature when it comes to their field service management, employing only the most bare-bones approach to the discipline.

Code reviews are a massively beneficial way to improve code quality, identify vulnerabilities, and establish coding best practices. According to Microsoft researchers, peer code reviews improve code quality by 15–35%. In addition, according to the Journal of Systems and Software, peer code reviews increase accountability by 30–40%.

As I’ve discussed in my previous blogs in this series, smart networks are becoming increasingly important in an ever-increasing range of industries. These smart networks can deliver significant benefits, but there are some risks, challenges and issues associated with moving to “smart”. In my final blog in the series I will discuss what is required from a modernized communications network to counter some of these risk, challenges and issues.

Today, I'm excited to share with you how we've turned Kubernetes into a product that developers can easily use without any headaches. We'll explore why Kubernetes can be difficult for developers and how Qovery simplifies the process by acting as an intermediate layer and integrating with the developer ecosystem.

Internet of Things (IoT) deployments continue to expand globally, revolutionising the way businesses operate by boosting efficiency and enhancing experiences for customers and employees. But as is the case with many innovations, growth has outpaced security considerations resulting in unforeseen problems emerging as bad actors seek to exploit new vulnerabilities.
