Summary

Qovery is a new generation of product designed to give developers greater autonomy over the infrastructure to run their applications, fulfilling multiple aspects of platform engineering: greater autonomy for developers, enabling ephemeral environments, deploying infrastructure as code, and using Kubernetes to orchestrate infrastructure under Qovery’s control plane, across multicloud environments. Omdia is seeing platform engineering evolve its DevOps roots into the cloud era and Qovery is an excellent example of this new generation of tools, reducing developer “cognitive overload” – a term often heard at the recent KubeCon Paris event – and allowing developers to spend more time on building applications.

Analyst opinion

The platform engineering space is expanding with new players such as Backstage, Crossplane, and Qovery (the subject of this opinion) growing adoption, while incumbents such as Red Hat Ansible, Chef, and Terraform re-architect and evolve their solutions. Qovery is Kubernetes compatible, which is a must-have for this era of cloud native computing, and extends it with its own control plane, thereby reducing the need for developers to get involved with infrastructure other than specifying their requirements. Platform engineering has different aspects – with Qovery it means extending control over legacy technology by connecting it to Kubernetes, creating ephemeral environments, and self-servicing infrastructure as code. Qovery runs on multiple clouds: AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform, Scaleway, and any Kubernetes installation, including on-premises.
