How Qovery works on Scaleway
Qovery is an abstraction layer on top of Scaleway and Kubernetes. Qovery manages the configuration of Scaleway account, and helps you to deploy production ready apps in seconds. To make it works, Qovery rely on Kubernetes for stateless apps (containers), and Scaleway for stateful apps (databases, storage...).
Read more on how Qovery works behind the scene.
Kubernetes
The first time you set up your Scaleway account, Qovery creates a Kubernetes cluster in your chosen region. Qovery managed it for you - no action required. It takes ~15 minutes to configure and bootstrap a Kubernetes cluster. Once bootstrapped, your Kubernetes cluster runs the Qovery app and is ready to deploy your applications.
Managed services
Scaleway provides managed services for PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis, MongoDB. Qovery gives you access to those services when you set the environment mode to Production
. In Development
mode, Qovery provides containers equivalent, which is cheaper and faster to start.
Security and compliance
Qovery runs your Kubernetes cluster and is autonomous to manage your applications, which means:
- Your configuration are stored on your Scaleway account.
- Your configuration is encrypted on your Scaleway account.
- Qovery can't access to your data.
- Suppose Qovery stops to run, your applications are not impacted.
FAQ
How to choose a region?
Different datacenters are located in different geographic areas, and you may want to keep your site physically close to the bulk of your user base for reduced latency.
