Permissions and Role Management (V3)

If you don’t know what it is already, the Permissions and Role Management feature enable you, as an organization owner, you want to define specific roles for your organization members so that they can reflect their roles, rights and responsibilities within your organization; it’s now possible thanks to this new feature.

Head to the Organization Settings in the V3, then select Roles and Permissions in the Team Dropdown.

Database Creation Flow (V3)

Already available on the V2, the Database creation flow was a missing part of the V3.

It is now possible to create your Database from the V3 interface with a brand-new panel (we said goodbye to the popup).

But that’s all because you can also change the General Settings and the Resources of your Database on the V3, head to your Database, and then click on Settings.

Cancel Deployment

While you could already Cancel an environment building for a while, you may launch an unwanted deployment (setting error, wrong commit deployed, etc.). You want to cancel the deployment after the build rather than wait for the action to be completed and then perform a rollback, which can be time-consuming; well, it is now possible!

Here is a short video to show you how fast it is to Cancel a Deployment while building (it also works after the build); if you want to take a deeper look, here is our documentation.

Instance Type Choice

It is now possible to select any of the available instance types with an x86_64 architecture on the chosen zone and even the CPU/RAM and cost of each of them, which gives you an infinite possibility, so you don’t feel obliged to pick one by default!

To learn more, here is our documentation about it.

Container on the Terraform Provider

A few sprints ago, we announced the launch of our Container feature! Most of you have been waiting a long to deploy container applications from your private and public container registries. Since we launched Qovery, we have only supported application deployment from your git repository. Now, you can also deploy it from your container registry, but that’s not it because, a victim of its success, we also decided to allow Container Deployment on the Qovery Terraform Provider as well. ✨

V3 Application Logs

No need to switch to the V2 anymore to see the application logs because we implemented it to the V3 as well, and it’s only the beginning as we are planning to add plenty of great features in the logs, don’t hesitate to tell us what you like or don’t in those new logs and share your suggestions on our Forum.

Accessibility Improvements

We tackled accessibility a few months ago in this Changelog, but we are now doing it again for our V3 console.

We made sure that with our changes, colors are accessible to people with and without disabilities, and every text and icon meets color contrast requirements. These requirements follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2 Level AA Conformance.

The process to make these changes was to check the contrast between the text and background in the components and then modify the colors with darker nuances.

Here is a glimpse of the new interface with those colour changes 👇🏻

Console V3

[V3] Logs

Already available on the V2, the Deployment Logs are also available on the V3!

If you need to take a closer look at what is happening while an operation is in progress, the deployment logs are what you need.

Note that deployment and application logs are merged into one interface, so you can navigate between them easily by changing tabs.

Others

  • AWS Elasticache (Redis 7)
  • Kube 1.22 Upgrade
  • Faster Cluster Delete
  • [V3] Deploy Other Version of an Application
  • Improvements in Storage Settings

Kubernetes management in 2026: mastering Day-2 ops with agentic control

The cluster coming up is the easy part. What catches teams off guard is what happens six months later: certificates expire without a single alert, node pools run at 40% over-provisioned because nobody revisited the initial resource requests, and a manual kubectl patch applied during a 2am incident is now permanent state. Agentic control planes enforce declared state continuously. Monitoring tools just report the problem.

Kubernetes observability at scale: how to cut APM costs without losing visibility

The instinct when setting up Kubernetes observability is to instrument everything and send it all to your APM vendor. That works fine at ten nodes. At a hundred, the bill becomes a board-level conversation. The less obvious problem is the fix most teams reach for: aggressive sampling. That is how intermittent failures affecting 1% of requests disappear from your monitoring entirely.

How to automate environment sleeping and stop paying for idle Kubernetes resources

Scaling your deployments to zero is only half the battle. If your cluster autoscaler does not aggressively bin-pack and terminate the underlying worker nodes, you are still paying for idle metal. True environment sleeping requires tight integration between your ingress layer and your node provisioner to actually realize FinOps savings.

10 best Kubernetes management tools for enterprise fleets in 2026

The structure, table, tool list, and code blocks are all worth keeping. The main work is fixing AI-isms in the prose, updating the case study to real metrics, correcting the FAQ format, and replacing the CTAs with the proper HTML blocks. The tool descriptions need the "Core strengths / Potential weaknesses" headers made less template-y, and the intro needs a sharper human voice.

10 best Red Hat OpenShift alternatives to reduce licensing costs

For years, Red Hat OpenShift has been the safe choice for heavily regulated, on-premise environments. It operates as a secure fortress. But in the public cloud, that fortress acts as an expensive prison. Paying proprietary per-core licensing fees on top of your standard AWS or GCP compute bill is a redundant "middleware tax." Escaping OpenShift requires decoupling your infrastructure from your developer experience by running standard, vanilla Kubernetes paired with an agentic control plane.

Stopping Kubernetes cloud waste: agentic automation for enterprise fleets

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.

What is Kubernetes? The reality of Day-2 enterprise fleet orchestration

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.
