Although I love Heroku, and it really is a great platform, I find that, for my startup and personal projects, the costs hold me back from doing some things. Say I need to run a simple background job, that would be $36/month - almost 2 linodes. And with the excellent articles on http://articles.slicehost.com, I find that setting up a vps takes no more than a few hours. Plus, it's a lot of fun and a good learning experience! I don't see how Heroku could do it much cheaper though, when you look at the pricing of Amazon EC2 instances which their platform runs on. |
