The Cloud Became Too Complex. Sevalla Is Building the Off-Ramp for Production Teams

Sevalla today announced the relaunch of its production application platform for teams that want to deploy and run applications without taking on hyperscaler infrastructure complexity or Kubernetes overhead.

Sevalla gives development teams the benefits of modern cloud infrastructure without requiring them to operate it themselves. Built-in pipelines, preview environments, managed databases, multi-region routing, and deployment workflows allow teams to move from code to production without stitching together cloud services, CI/CD systems, or Kubernetes infrastructure manually.

Development teams can deploy production workloads through a single platform instead of managing fragmented infrastructure across hyperscalers and standalone tools.

Development teams that adopted hyperscalers for flexibility are now spending increasing amounts of time managing Kubernetes clusters, deployment pipelines, networking, scaling behavior, and environment drift instead of shipping products.

Sevalla is built to be the off-ramp from that complexity. The platform is designed for production teams that want the benefits of modern cloud infrastructure without becoming infrastructure operators themselves.

“Most development teams don’t want to spend their time managing Kubernetes, debugging deployment pipelines or stitching together cloud infrastructure,” said Kristóf Dombi, head of PaaS Development at Sevalla. “They want to ship reliable production applications. Sevalla is built to remove that operational complexity while still giving developers the automation and production capabilities they need to move fast.”

Sevalla consolidates production infrastructure into a single platform instead of forcing teams to assemble and maintain multiple cloud services themselves. Production workloads, including modern AI-enabled applications and supporting services, run together in one consistent environment. Deployment pipelines and preview environments move code from development to production in minutes, with built-in observability, AI-assisted workflows, and transparent usage-based pricing already in place.

For teams managing fragmented infrastructure across traditional cloud providers, that consolidation reduces operational overhead, infrastructure sprawl, deployment friction, and ongoing maintenance complexity without sacrificing production flexibility.

Platform capabilities:

  • Built-in deployment pipelines and preview environments

    Ship to production without wiring together CI/CD tooling and cloud infrastructure.

  • Automation-first developer workflow

    Manage infrastructure through API, CLI, Terraform, and MCP without leaving your workflow.

  • Geographic and weighted load balancing across 25 global data centers

    Route traffic globally without manually tuning infrastructure or managing complex networking setups.

  • Managed databases, object storage, static sites, and background services

    Run production workloads on a single platform with global static asset delivery through Cloudflare’s edge network.

  • AI-assisted operational debugging

    Use AI-assisted workflows to investigate logs, deployments, and infrastructure issues faster.

Teams are already using Sevalla to replace fragmented cloud infrastructure and reduce operational overhead. Clear Estate migrated from Google Cloud to Sevalla to simplify infrastructure management and reduce cloud costs, while teams like Stepler are moving workloads away from Kubernetes and hyperscaler environments to simplify deployments and reduce DevOps complexity.

“We ported our entire application to Sevalla in just a single day,” said Jorik Kraaikamp Mulder, lead backend developer at Stepler. “That’s far faster than what we could do in the past. Our original setup on GKE took around three months, largely due to the steep learning curve of the tools involved. With Sevalla, the migration process was straightforward and intuitive, allowing us to move everything over directly. This new platform has significantly simplified our infrastructure management.”

Developers can start deploying applications on Sevalla immediately with a free trial at sevalla.com.

About Sevalla

Sevalla by Kinsta is a production platform for developer-led teams that want to deploy and run applications without managing cloud infrastructure or Kubernetes. The platform supports production applications, databases, object storage, static sites, and background workloads through a usage-based model designed for operational simplicity without losing control.
