## What it is
Qovery Engine is the Rust orchestration runtime behind Qovery's Kubernetes control plane, turning API operations into reproducible infrastructure and Kubernetes changes via Terraform, Helm, and kubectl. It provisions clusters and cloud resources on AWS, GCP, Azure, Scaleway, or on-premises, and deploys applications, jobs, and managed services.

## Use cases
- provision managed kubernetes clusters on aws gcp azure scaleway
- deploy applications to kubernetes without writing devops pipelines
- automate kubernetes cluster upgrades across a fleet
- give ai coding agents safe guardrailed access to deploy infrastructure
- create preview environments from pull requests
- migrate apps from heroku vercel railway to own cloud account
- self-service infrastructure platform for development teams

## When to choose
- you want a PaaS-like developer experience on your own cloud account
- you need multi-cloud Kubernetes provisioning and lifecycle management
- you want AI agents to deploy with RBAC and audit boundaries enforced at the API
- you prefer Terraform and Helm under the hood with opinionated defaults

## When to avoid
- you need a general-purpose deployment SDK or library to embed in your own tooling
- you want a lightweight single-cluster tool rather than a full platform
- you require a permissive open-source license (GPL-3.0, and the engine is tied to the Qovery platform)
- you only need simple CI/CD without infrastructure provisioning
