As a startup, we have been using the OVHcloud services those last 10+ years for DNS domain name registration. After all, this is what OVH started with and become famous (BTW this blog is hosted under datalayer.blog which we bought from OVH, as most of the other domain names we are using). During that time, we have seen more and more services being launched at OVHcloud (note the name change where cloud is added), starting with the dedicated bare metal offering.

Because we were looking more to the virtual machine and Kubernetes world, we have been naturally tempted to use the Azure, GCP or AWS offerings at their very early stage. All those leading cloud providers offer credits for startups combined with technical support and go-to-market offering.

At some point, Kubernetes at OVH has been around for some time (see this annoucement back in 2019) and we heard from other companies that those new services were very flexible and potentially cheaper than others. So it became clear to us that we wanted to try them and we naturally applied to their Startup program. Guess what, we received a positive response 2 days after 🎉 The journey was ready to start!
