How Qovery Community plan works

Since we launched Qovery in January 2020, we offered free hosting ("Community" plan) for every developer. Providing free hosting was the perfect way to get product feedback and iterate with our users without the cost constraint. As our hosting infrastructure costs have drastically grown within the last 18 months, we had to reinvent our free offer. In a nutshell, we will continue to offer free hosting to involved community members only. Keep reading to know more 👇

Kubernetes Master Class GitOps and Fleet Multi Cluster CD with EKS, GKE and AKS

GitOps is a relatively new model with a fast adoption rate because of how it enhances the continuous delivery workflow in the Kubernetes context. GitOps requires you to describe and observe systems with declarative configurations that will form the basis of continuous integration, continuous delivery and continuous deployment of your infrastructure. In this session, we will focus on making use of Fleet to manage deployments to multiple downstream clusters at scale.

Kubernetes Master Class Security & Observability feat. Tigera

In this RKE-focused workshop for networking, security, and observability on containers, Kubernetes, and Calico, you will work with a Calico and RKE expert to learn how to design, deploy, and observe security and networking policies in an RKE environment. This 90-minute hands-on lab comes with your own provisioned Calico Cloud environment, designed to provide more complete knowledge on how to implement:– Workload access controls– Compliance and reporting– Run-time visualization of traffic flow and security policies– Service-level observability– Anomaly detection and live troubleshooting You will come away from this workshop with an understanding of how others in your industry are doing Kubernetes, container and cloud security, and observability in RKE, and how you can implement it in your own organization.

Kubernetes Master Class Managing Cluster Security at Scale

A Kubernetes cluster has various attack surfaces, from the API server to application traffic. It's important to understand what these potential areas of attack are, and from there, work out the best ways to mitigate the risks. This is especially important when managing multiple clusters. You want to ensure that you are following the right methods, and then standardizing those security approaches to be applied to all your clusters. In this session, we will cover some of the Kubernetes attack vectors and detail how to secure your clusters.

5 Things Developers Need to Know About Kubernetes Management

Kubernetes management can be daunting for developers who don’t have specialized understanding of the orchestration technology. Learning Kubernetes takes practice and time, a precious commodity for devs who are under pressure to deliver new applications. This post provides direction on what you need to know and what you can skip to take advantage of Kubernetes. Let’s start with five things you need to know.

What's new in Sysdig - November 2021

The “What’s new in Sysdig” blog has been rotated to a new team, and this month, Peter Andersson is responsible for the publishing. Thanks to Chris Kranz for an excellent job compiling these articles earlier.

Turbocharging AKS networking with Calico eBPF

A single Kubernetes cluster expends a small percentage of its total available assigned resources on delivering in-cluster networking. We don’t have to be satisfied with this, though—achieving the lowest possible overhead can provide significant cost savings and performance improvements if you are running network-intensive workloads.
