Introducing the Qovery Perks Program for Startups
TL;DR
- With the “Qovery Perks Program for Startups”, we offer eligible companies: 6 months of Free services on the Qovery Team Plan + 30% off the first annual subscription after the initial 6-month free period + 1-on-1 onboarding
- Qovery remains free, even as you scale your workload and your engineering team
- On-demand & Ephemeral environments enable startups even more to build great things, faster
Qovery helps growing startups speed up their app deployment and engineering velocity on AWS. Engineering team leverage Qovery to ease infrastructure and environment provisioning on AWS and to deploy apps faster with high security and compliance. From one single place, you can manage all your environments and eliminate all the bottlenecks arising from manual environment provisioning
Why Supporting Startups is Important?
We've been there. When you're building great things, the only things that matters are focus and speed. As a startup, you must focus on reducing time-to-market, shipping features as (and when) your end-users demand, deploying better security standards, and keeping your customers satisfied. So the initial phase of your organization, when you have limited resources, is not the time to stay busy in operations, such as spending hours a week properly setting up and maintaining the infrastructure and environments.
Qovery got your back! Qovery provides fast implementation and maintenance of your cloud infrastructure while taking care of end-to-end DevOps tasks. It even manages your Kubernetes clusters for you. It gives developers autonomy because it is effortless and does not need a huge DevOps workforce. With a few clicks, a developer can create a replica of the production environment and deploy their code easily.
With Qovery on-demand environments and ephemeral environments, you get to save both cost and time instead of spending time and skills on properly setting up and maintaining cloud environments.
You’ll also likely work on features, bugs, and PR reviews simultaneously, but switching context is usually a hassle and time-intensive task. That’s where Qovery’s Preview Environments comes in, solving this problem by automatically creating a clone of your production environment (including applications, databases, and configuration) on every pull request, so you can test your changes confidently without affecting your production.
This is how hundreds of startups already leverage Qovery. Whether it is urgent bug fixes or a new feature release, startups need a quick way to spin up a deployment environment. Qovery helps your startup increase productivity, improve team collaboration, reduce costs, and you can deliver resilient and high-quality products to your customers.
The Benefits
You’ll receive six months of Qovery’s Team plan for free, including a 1-on-1 onboarding. Also, you can claim 30% off the first annual subscription after the initial six-month free period. For your whole team, no matter how big you scale and how many engineers you hire during that time.
Who is Eligible?
Your startup is eligible if:
- If you are part of the portfolio of Crane, SpeedInvest other organizations that have a Perks program with whom we have partnered (the complete list is coming soon, please ask us if you are affiliated with an organization not yet listed).
OR
- If it was founded less than 3y ago, it has raised a maximum of $10m in capital and hasn’t been on a paid plan yet.
How Do I Apply?
Apply here and mention one of the two eligibility conditions above. Once you’re part of the program, you’ll get a personal onboarding call with our community engineers.

Agentic Kubernetes resource reclamation is the practice of using an autonomous control plane to continuously identify, suspend, and delete idle infrastructure across a multi-cloud Kubernetes fleet. It replaces manual cleanup and reactive autoscaling with intent-based policies that act on business state, eliminating the configuration drift and cloud waste typical of unmanaged fleets.
Kubernetes focuses on container orchestration, but the reality on the ground is far less forgiving. Provisioning a single cluster is a trivial Day-1 exercise. The true operational nightmare begins on Day 2. Teams that treat multi-cloud fleets like isolated pets inevitably face crushing YAML configuration drift, runaway AWS bills, and severe scaling bottlenecks.
The shift from AI copilots to autonomous agents is redefining infrastructure requirements. Discover how to build secure, stateful, and compliant Agentic AI systems using Kubernetes, sandboxing, and observability while meeting EU AI Act standards
Effective Kubernetes management in 2026 demands a shift from manual cluster building to intent-based fleet orchestration. By implementing agentic automation on standard EKS, GKE, or AKS clusters, enterprises eliminate operational weight, prevent configuration drift, and proactively control cloud spend without vendor lock-in, enabling effective scaling across massive fleets.
A Kubernetes single pane of glass is a centralized management layer that unifies visibility, access control, cost allocation, and policy enforcement across § cluster in an enterprise fleet for all cloud providers. It replaces the fragmented practice of switching between AWS, GCP, and Azure consoles to govern infrastructure, giving platform teams a single source of truth for multi-cloud Kubernetes operations.
Deploying a Docker container on Kubernetes requires building an image, authenticating with a registry, writing YAML deployment manifests, configuring services, and executing kubectl commands. While necessary to understand, executing this manual workflow across thousands of clusters causes severe configuration drift. Enterprise platform teams use agentic platforms to automate the entire deployment lifecycle.
Optimizing Kubernetes on AWS is less about raw compute and more about surviving Day-2 operations. A standard failure mode occurs when teams scale the control plane while ignoring Amazon VPC IP exhaustion. When the cluster autoscaler triggers, nodes provision but pods fail to schedule due to IP depletion. Effective scaling requires network foresight before compute allocation.
At enterprise scale, managing provider-specific Kubernetes YAML across multiple clouds creates crippling configuration drift and operational toil. By adopting an agentic Kubernetes management platform, infrastructure teams abstract cloud-specific configurations (like ingress controllers and storage classes) into a single, declarative intent that automatically reconciles across 1,000+ clusters.
