Qovery

US alternative: Render

French developer platform that provides a production-grade Kubernetes control plane in a customer-owned cloud account.

Fully European

Overview

Qovery is a French developer platform that provides a managed control plane for deploying and operating applications on a customer's own cloud account. It combines application deployment, databases, jobs, environments, access controls, and infrastructure-as-code workflows around standard Kubernetes. The company states that customer workloads, data, and secrets remain in the customer's VPC while Qovery handles deployment metadata and orchestration. This makes it a differentiated European alternative to Render and other US developer platforms for teams that want PaaS simplicity without surrendering cloud ownership.

Privacy and hosting notes

Qovery states that BIRDSIGHT SAS processes deployment metadata but not application data, customer data, or secrets; customers should still review sub-processors and cloud-account boundaries for their plan.

Funding and ownership

Qovery reports backing from founders of Docker, Datadog, and Contentsquare and angel funding, but does not publish a complete total amount.
