Unexpected: How we ended up product of the day on Producthunt with zero preparation
Producthunt is a great place for us to share with developers what we have built for so long.
“Product Hunt is a community where founders, product enthusiasts, and geeks go to check out the best new products and get attention for tech products that they've built.” says Josh Fetcher
If there is one sentence to define me it would be “done is better than perfect”. Saturday morning, after spending the last night to release a new major version of our product while fixing bugs I came up with an idea: “Oh! It would be great time to make Qovery featured on Producthunt”.
I heard a couple of times that launching a product on Producthunt is something that you have to prepare days before, sometimes weeks... Anyway, I do not really get why I should spend so much time filling up a title, description and put a few product screenshots. It literally took me 30 minutes to launch Qovery on Producthunt and it was 11:21 am CEST / 2:21 am PT.
Here we are, we launched Qovery on Producthunt. I started to receive messages from my friends saying “Congrats on your launch”. To be honest, I did not realize launching a product on Producthunt was so important. When I received dozens of messages like this, I started to understand that it was serious business from an external perspective - I decided to put some effort into reaching the first position.
To make it short, I asked our dev community to share their love on Producthunt. And the magic happened. We came from nowhere to the top 3 products of the day. Then step by step we reached the first position. It happened 12 hours later - at 11:43 pm CEST / 2:43 pm PT
And a few hours later, we can confirm that Qovery's DevOps Automation Tool is the product of the day on Producthunt.
Wrapping up
I feel lucky to finish "product of the day". It was only possible because we have a huge community supporting us. I would not advise you to launch your product on Producthunt if you are not well backed as we are.
I would thanks to our wonderful community (I love you so much - this success is definitely yours), our team, our investors, and friends Cyril C., Gregory Q., Georges G., the Ullink, and Techstars family.

AI is helping developers write more code, faster than ever. But writing code is only half the story. What happens after? Building, deploying, debugging, scaling. That's where teams still lose hours.We're building Qovery for this era. Not just to deploy your code, but to make everything that comes after writing it just as fast.
In the 2026 regulatory landscape, manual audits are a liability. This guide explores using GitOps to generate DORA-compliant audit trails through IaC, drift detection, and automated segregation of duties. Discover how the Qovery management layer turns compliance into an architectural output, reducing manual overhead for CTOs and Senior Engineers.
Kubernetes success is determined by Day 2 execution, not Day 1 deployment. While migration is a bounded project, maintenance is an infinite loop that often consumes 40% of senior engineering capacity. To protect margins and velocity, enterprises must transition from manual toil to agentic automation that handles scaling, security, and cost.
Day-0 is planning, Day-1 is deployment, and Day-2 is the infinite lifecycle of maintenance. While Day-0/1 are foundational, Day-2 is where enterprise operational debt accumulates. At fleet scale (1,000+ clusters), managing these differences manually is impossible, requiring agentic automation to maintain stability and eliminate toil.
A multi-cluster Kubernetes architecture distributes application workloads across geographically separated clusters rather than a single environment. This strategy strictly isolates failure domains, ensures regional data compliance, and guarantees global high availability, but demands centralized Day-2 control to prevent exponential cloud costs and operational sprawl.
