Here’s What Happens When Two Magento Leaders Talk Infrastructure
When two Magento vets get together to talk shop, you get a grounded look at what it really takes to build, support, and scale ecommerce stores, and the infrastructure that can sometimes get in the way.
In this recorded conversation, Jakub Winkler, CEO of Qoliber, and Artur Fridberg, CEO of JetRails, walk through JetRails AutoPilot, a hosting automation platform purpose-built for ecommerce and finely tuned for Magento. Along the way, they talk about the day-to-day pressures developers face, the workflows that matter, and how features like hibernation, scaling, and direct access can save time and reduce risk.

Why Developers Like Qoliber Are Paying Attention to AutoPilot
Qoliber creates tools that help other developers work faster and more efficiently. From admin UI enhancements to extension deployment workflows, their products live inside the same kinds of environments that JetRails supports.
That shared experience led to this conversation. Both companies know what it means to support Magento 2 in the wild, and how poorly optimized infrastructure slows teams down.
JetRails AutoPilot was built for this kind of work. It lets developers launch production-grade Magento environments in minutes, with flexible configuration and full visibility. Everything from vertical scaling to root access is handled through a clean interface. When you don’t need a server, you can hibernate it and stop paying for it.
AutoPilot gives Magento teams the control and speed they need without the overhead.
5 Takeaways from the Conversation
1. The Shift to AWS Came from Clients
JetRails didn’t plan to move from data centers to AWS. Their clients forced the shift. Scaling, redundancy and responsiveness made the case clear, even if AWS introduced new complexity.
“We didn’t move to AWS because it was trendy. We moved because clients demanded it.”
2. AutoPilot Cuts the Setup Time from Days to Minutes
Jakub’s demo showed just how quickly a full Magento stack can be launched with AutoPilot. It used to take a week. Now it’s a 20-minute process that includes autoscaling, load balancing, and database tuning.
“What used to take 40 hours now takes 20 minutes.”
3. Developers Get Root Access and Real Control
AutoPilot environments are single tenant. That means JetRails can safely offer root access, CLI control, activity logs, and real infrastructure transparency. No tickets, no black box.
4. Hibernation Saves Time and Money
Need to test a plugin or clone production for QA? Launch a full environment, do the work, and set it to hibernate when you’re done. You only pay for storage during downtime.
5. Integrated Tools That Respect Developer Workflows
From built-in Cloudflare management to deployer recipes and access expiration controls, AutoPilot keeps everything clean and familiar. No surprises, no lock-in, no fluff.
