Would be nice if there were something like this (like Heroku) for Java. I know that there are several "cloud" solutions for Java, but I haven't found something as simple to manage/extend/deploy like Heroku so far :(.

yeah there are, http://www.stax.net/ for Java EE developers.

another, https://www.playapps.net/ for play apps., those written using the playframework.

I used Stax during beta, and it's nice, but it's no near the Heroku ease of use (puls it's little helper Nezumi http://nezumiapp.com/ when on the way). With very small restrictions, one can install anything on Stax, so it's very flexible, but just not that easy to use as Heroku'.

Unfortunately Play framework is not based on a servlet container (something that 99% of java webapps are using).
