Heroku – an experience
This year I’ve been able to leverage Heroku for the benefit of my employers. Two projects which were urgent, and had to be put in place in the middle of an IT infrastructure transition pushed by the merging of companies.
The experience has been overwhelmingly positive technically. Even while struggling with Ruby 1.9 encoding problems, the ridiculously productive community and tech folks @ heroku were able to provide a solid scalable and cheap platform.
Heroku and Taps simplified deployment pains , helped make smooth database nightmares of yesterday.
I highly recommend Heroku; it is as painless a hosting environment as you could ever wish for.
