Heroku Integrations
Here are some stack decisions, common use cases and reviews by companies and developers who chose Heroku in their tech stack.
I am a Business Analyst, and just completed my Python course and need to start work on a website. I need to host my site, and I am considering Heroku, PythonAnywhere, or GoDaddy (I have purchased a domain from godaddy). For the site, I will be using Python, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Django, and db MySQL to start with and then move to PostgreSQL.
Why can't I host a server on GitHub Pages?
I'm curious what the difference between GHP and a PaaS like Render or Heroku is. Thank you!
Heroku was down for over a month, I gave them a chance and they could not deliver. I didn't make updates to my site in over a month. Terrible customer service and reliability.
Heroku is unable to handle payment issues arising due to Indian Reserve Bank's decision to stop recurring card payments. I am using the following Heroku services:
- Web Dyno
- Worker Dyno (Scheduler)
- Cron To Go (Queue)
- ClearDB (MySQL)
- Heroku Redis (Queue Driver)
I have to migrate my Apache/ PHP/ Laravel/ HTML/ CSS/ jQuery/ MySQL application hosted on Heroku to a new provider. My current options visible are:
- AWS Fargate
- AWS Beanstalk
- Quovery
- Microsoft Azure
- Laravel Vapor
- Laravel Forge
Does anyone have any guidance on which of the above options (or any other option not identified above) is recommended for migrating away from Heroku? and why?
Hello, I'm currently writing an e-commerce website with Laravel and Laravel Nova (as an admin panel). I want to start deploying the app and created a DigitalOcean account. After some searches about the deployment process, I saw that the setup via DigitalOcean (using Droplets) isn't very easy for beginners. Now I'm not sure how to deploy my app. I am in between Laravel Forge and DigitalOcean (?Apps Platform or Droplets?). I've read that Heroku and Laravel Vapor are a bit expensive. That's why I didn't consider them yet. I'd be happy to read your opinions on that topic!
Hi, I'm a beginner at using MySQL, I currently deployed my crud app on Heroku using the ClearDB add-on. I didn't see that coming, but the increased value of the primary key instead of being 1 is set to 10, and I cannot find a way to change it. Now I`m considering switching and deploying the full app and MySql to DigitalOcean any advice on that? Will I get the same issue? Thanks in advance!
