AppHarbor vs Pipedream

AppHarbor vs Pipedream: What are the differences?

What is AppHarbor? Instantly deploy and scale .NET applications. AppHarbor is a fully hosted .NET Platform as a Service. AppHarbor can deploy and scale any standard .NET application to the cloud.

What is Pipedream? Develop any workflow, on any trigger, with auth and no infra. It is an integration platform for developers to build and run workflows that integrate apps, data, and APIs — no servers or infrastructure to manage.

AppHarbor belongs to "Platform as a Service" category of the tech stack, while Pipedream can be primarily classified under "Integration Tools".

Some of the features offered by AppHarbor are:

• You push .NET and Windows code to AppHarbor using Git, Mercurial, Subversion or Team Foundation Server with the complimentary Git service or through integrations offered in collaboration with Bitbucket, CodePlex and GitHub.
• When AppHarbor receives your code it will be built by a build server. If the code compiles all unit tests contained in the compiled assemblies will be run. The result and progress of the build and unit test status can be monitored on the application dashboard. AppHarbor will call any service hooks that you add to notify you of the build result.
• If everything checks out the application is deployed and configured on AppHarbor application servers. AppHarbor can scale an application vertically and horizontally within seconds for better request throughout, performance and failover. AppHarbor balance load across all instances running that application. Scaling an application gives higher request thoughput, redundancy in case of instance failure and better performance.

On the other hand, Pipedream provides the following key features:

• Run any Node.js code, or use pre-built actions
• Create, share, and fork workflows from the community
• Send data to S3, Snowflake, email, SSE, and more
