I am thrilled to announce that we have raised a $1M pre-seed round with top notch investors. Among them are top entrepreneurs and Cloud experts like Alexis Lê-Quôc, co-founder and CTO at Datadog, and Sebastien Pahl, Co-founder of Docker. Qovery will use the funds to strengthen its research and development team and extend their offer to technology companies in Europe and in the US.
Kubernetes is the most popular Open Source technology of the last five years. It was created by Google to allow companies to use container (Docker) applications in production.

Nearly 10 years later, this methodology is still considered by the developer community as an excellent practice to follow when building an application. In this article, we will see step by step how Qovery respects and improves the 12-factor methodology. Here we go.

Nowadays, Slack is often the default choice for an online communication tool in the tech industry. Startups, enterprises, open-source projects - they all use Slack to communicate within their organization but sometimes also with their users and community. Our startup was no different.
