- You have a Qovery account
- You have created an Organization
- You have a Digital Ocean account
Connect your Digital Ocean account
To link your Digital Ocean account to Qovery you need to provide a Digital Ocean access key id, secret access key and a personal access token.
Create your Digital Ocean credentials - access key id, secret access key and personal access token.
Go to

How Qovery works on Digital Ocean
Qovery is an abstraction layer on top of Digital Ocean and Kubernetes. Qovery manages the configuration of Digital Ocean account, and helps your to deploy production ready apps in seconds. To make it works, Qovery rely on Kubernetes for stateless apps (containers), and Digital Ocean for stateful apps (databases, storage...).
Kubernetes
The first time you set up your Digital Ocean 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
Digital Ocean 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 Digital Ocean account.
- Your configuration is encrypted on your Digital Ocean account.
- Qovery can't access to your data.
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.
