Those of you interested in the Heroku lifestyle and willing to have a quick and painless deployment experience (for simple apps) are welcome to try out Piku, a tiny Heroku-inspired PaaS for your own servers:

Neat, but "my own servers" is not what I think of as the "heroku lifestyle" at all!

Have you by any chance tried Dokku? How does it compare with Piku?

[rcarmo]

Yes, I developed Piku because I did not want to deal with containers on low end platforms like the Raspberry Pi.

These days I run it everywhere, for anything between a headless scraper worker pool to a full blown site.
