AWS Joins Qovery To Support Developers To Build on AWS For Free

Exciting news for all developers out there! Qovery and AWS are teaming up to support developers looking to host projects. As recently announced, Qovery has become an AWS Activate and Global Startup partner. Now, we are extending our support to developers more meaningfully with the AWS Activate Founders program.

Through this program, developers can apply for $1000 free credits to host their apps on AWS with Qovery. This is an incredible opportunity for developers looking to start and scale their projects for free. With AWS Activate Founders, Qovery makes it easier for developers to focus on their project ideas and build their businesses without worrying about the technical infrastructure and costs.

"We believe that this program will help aspiring entrepreneurs and developers get started on their projects without having to worry about hosting costs. We are excited to work with AWS to offer this opportunity to our users," said Romaric Philogène, CEO of Qovery.

A better alternative to Heroku

Since Heroku has discontinued its free offer, Qovery and AWS make a lot of sense for developers who need to host their applications. With Qovery, developers get the best of both worlds - the simplicity of Heroku and the power of AWS.

"Since Heroku no longer offers free tiers, it made sense for me to use AWS and Qovery right away. I was impressed by their ease of use and community support," says Kane, developer.

Qovery provides an outstanding developer experience on AWS, making it easy to deploy backend, frontend, and even databases like Postgres, Redis, MongoDB, and MySQL. With Qovery, there is no need to be an AWS expert to host your apps, making it an ideal choice for developers and bootstrappers who want to focus on building their apps instead of worrying about infrastructure maintenance.

Comprehensible comparison of AWS + Qovery vs. Heroku

Ready to start?

At Qovery, we are committed to providing the founders of tomorrow with the tools they need to succeed. Our partnership with AWS and the AWS Activate Founders program makes it easier for founders to turn their ideas into reality.
