While the cloud offers significant benefits compared to traditional on-premise infrastructure, its inherent elasticity and scalability lead to uncontrolled costs.  Cloud costs can be opaque and difficult to analyze — and without some system of identifying the source of costs and how to manage them — they can quickly undermine your profit margins. Since Qovery makes it easy to create on-demand environments, it can drastically grow your cloud costs. In this guide, we’ll look at some Qovery features that help to keep your cost under control, let's go!

One of the great things about GitFlow is that it makes parallel development very easy by isolating new development from finished work. New development, such as features, is done in feature branches and is only merged back into the main body of code when developers have validated the feature and the code is ready for release. For most development teams, feature validation happens in a staging branch coupled with a single testing environment. When this single environment is broken, releases are delayed, developers are stressed, and your team loses the benefits of GitFlow - promoting parallel development. In this article, I will explain why using a single testing environment breaks the GitFlow benefits and introduce a solution to get dynamic testing environments per branch - Preview Environments.

A while ago, Heroku made the surprising decision to discontinue its free tier, leaving many developers searching for alternatives. This decision followed Salesforce's acquisition of Heroku, with the platform refocusing its energies towards serving "mission-critical" businesses. But every cloud has a silver lining. The evolving landscape of cloud platforms has created numerous alternatives that are on par with or even surpass what Heroku offers, both in terms of features and pricing. This article dives deep into the top ten of these contenders, shedding light on what each brings to the table. We will discuss the strengths and weaknesses of each alternate, along with the pricing model. Let’s start with the first one, Qovery.
