Easy Deployments
Overall Satisfaction with Heroku
Heroku is used to host our backend Ruby on Rails API server, our Postgres database, and our Salesforce Connect logic to sync our data to Salesforce.
Pros
- Easy deployments
- Variety of quality add-ons
- Good UI/UX
Cons
- Autoscaling
- Cost
- Support for React
- Allows my development team to focus on writing new features over deployment logic
- Automatic backups of our data
- Don't need to write custom salesforce code
- Amazon Relational Database Service and Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2)
Heroku is much easier to get setup in and doesn't require strong DevOps knowledge. It's also a lot harder to mess up in.
