Exactly, I don't really see the point of migrating off Heroku unless you have scaled beyond it (in which case you are successful anyway) or are simply chasing distractions.

For us, Heroku allows us to focus on the product and simply ship features which brings revenue and keeps everyone happy; it may not be sexy right now but it sure as heck is mature and stable with lots of integrations.

Salesforce might eventually end up completely dismantling it but I'm hoping by that time other players can catch up.



i haven’t used heroku. i assume it and all other x% aws-markup paas feel about the same.

my point was that it’s not really needed.

if you’re migrating off, you already have an sdlc that you like and want to preserve from provider degradation over time.

simplify it a bit, and encode it directly into aws or ovh. then it’s permanent, and grows insanely robust over time.

sdlc doesn’t not need to be constantly evolving. evolve it for the next greenfield product.
