One of the most critical aspects of a developer's workflow is reducing deployment time. While Qovery does a lot of heavy lifting to make your deployments faster and more efficient, there are still ways to fine-tune the process on your end. This guide will help you optimize deployment time across three essential phases: Build, Deployment, and Runtime.
A paradigm-shifting concept has emerged in the dynamic and ever-evolving world of modern software development — Environment as a Service (EaaS). This innovative approach has swiftly become a cornerstone of streamlined development processes, offering developers the means to effortlessly provision, manage, and collaborate within diverse software environments.
I’ve worked on on-premised and managed Kubernetes clusters for more than seven years. What I can say is that containers have drastically changed the hosting landscape! It has brought a lot of facilities where complex setups were required. Having several instances, with rolling restart, zero downtime, health check, etc. It was such a pain and time effort before (implementing VRRP solution, application monitoring restart with monit like, load balancing haproxy like)!
In the ever-evolving landscape of modern software development, where speed, quality, and collaboration are paramount, the concept of preview environments has gained significant traction. These virtual sandboxes serve as vital tools that empower developers to thoroughly test their code changes in isolated environments before integrating them into the main codebase. The advantages are multifaceted, ranging from reduced bugs to enhanced collaboration and accelerated software delivery.
In the realm of software development and testing, end-to-end (E2E) testing plays a pivotal role in ensuring the robustness and reliability of web applications. Unlike unit or integration testing, which focuses on specific components or integrations between them, end-to-end testing evaluates the entire system as a whole. This includes testing the flow from the user's perspective, from start to finish, and often involves multiple systems and components working in unison.
During the AWS summit in London, Renee Hunt, the CTO of Compare the Market, shared their journey of migrating from EC2 to EKS and the obstacles they faced along the way. As I listened to their story, I couldn't help but think about how Qovery could have greatly streamlined its migration process; here is my take on the subject.
At Qovery, we are committed to ensuring our users have access to the best development tools in the industry. That’s why we’re excited about Neon — a state-of-the-art serverless Postgres solution. When used in conjunction with Qovery's Preview environments, Neon supercharges your development pipeline.
We're excited to announce the general availability of the new "Clone Service" feature on Qovery, which is built to augment the capabilities of our platform and to cater to our user needs more effectively. Qovery has always prided itself on being a user-centric platform, and this new feature continues to uphold that tradition.
At Qovery, we've always prided ourselves on the usability and convenience of our web interface. It's where most of our users begin their journey, configuring and deploying applications with ease and speed. Many users start configuring their applications on our intuitive web interface, validate the successful deployment, and then transition to writing their configurations with the powerful infrastructure-as-code tool, Terraform, utilizing the Qovery Terraform Provider.
