Qovery offers two distinct approaches to Kubernetes management: Kubernetes managed by Qovery and self-managed Kubernetes (Bring Your Own Kubernetes - BYOK)
Here is a table to help you to choose between both:

| Management | Fully managed by Qovery | Self-managed by the organization |
| Control | Limited control over Kubernetes infrastructure | Full control over Kubernetes setup |
| Supported Cloud Service Providers | AWS, GCP, Scaleway | All |
| Customization | Standard Qovery configuration | High customization and configuration freedom |
| Expertise Required | None | Requires Kubernetes expertise |
| Responsibility | Qovery is responsible for maintenance | Organization is responsible for maintenance |
| Developer Experience | Streamlined and simplified | Streamlined and simplified (no difference) |
| Setup Complexity | Just a AWS, GCP or Scaleway account | Requires infrastructure and Kubernetes knowledge |
| Flexibility in Usage | Standardized to Qovery's environment | Flexible to meet specific organizational needs |
