The service helps developers to build applications with many languages and services, with auto-scaling features and a true pay-as-you-go pricing model; Convox: Launch a Private Cloud in Minutes. The simplicity of Heroku. The power of AWS. Convox is an open source Platform as a Service that runs in your own Amazon Web Services (AWS) account.
