As a developer, using Heroku (a Platform as a Service (PaaS)) helps get our applications up and running quickly without worrying about servers, scaling, backup, network, and so many underground details. Heroku is the perfect solution to start a project. But as the project grows, the needs become more complex, and moving from Heroku to Amazon Web Services (AWS) becomes more and more a no-brainer choice (discover why so many CTOs decide to move from Heroku to AWS). In this article, I'll compare Heroku and AWS on the features, pricing, scaling, and developer experience criteria. At the end of the article, you will better understand what to choose between Heroku and AWS in 2023. Let's go!

The high demand to deliver software that is both highly available and able to meet customer requests has, in part, led to the adoption of microservice architecture, a software architecture pattern that makes it easier to deploy applications as self-contained entities called containers. These containers are nothing but processes that run as long as the application in them is running. This has made containerization the de facto standard for deploying applications and has brought about the development of several new tools and technologies like Kubernetes and Service Mesh.

2021 has been a crazy year for the Qovery team. When I look back, 1 year ago we were 4 in the team, now we are 15! We expect to double the size of the team for 2022 while keeping our developer DNA. 2022 looks bright, and we strive to make the cloud simple for everyone.

Heroku is a cloud-based platform that helps companies build, deliver, monitor, and scale applications with high velocity. Heroku's popularity is due to its simplicity, usability, elegance, and focus on the developer experience. Developers find Heroku helpful as they can get their application ready and running with only minimal focus on configuring infrastructure. Heroku scores on easiness in architecting apps, deploying them to flexible cloud infrastructure, and scaling them as required. However, startups and a few organizations are seeking to move away from Heroku for AWS in recent times. In this article, you will learn why hundreds of CTOs and developers from growing startups have decided to move out of Heroku for AWS.

I am pleased to interview Brandon Bayer, creator of Blitz.JS - a popular open-source React framework.

So you’ve heard of Kubernetes, and you’ve decided it’s time to dive into this cloud native architecture thateveryone’s talking about. Or maybe you’ve worked with it a little, but you’d like to level up.

Traditionally, provisioning an infrastructure meant a team of field engineers, system admins, storage admins, backup admins, and an application team would all provision and maintain an on-premises data center. Although this system works, it has a few flaws—slow deployment, high cost of setup and maintenance, limited automation, human error, inconsistency, and the underutilization of resources during off-peak periods.
