Does Heroku provide VPS servers?

realnumber9 years ago

They have various runtimes for languages such as java,python,node js,meteor.etc

They also offer database support such as mysql. You however require a buildpack to get an app running.

I pay $30 a month for my app and they say I could also run background services using a dyno.

The pricing is great and I would prefer heroku to digital ocean.

In a way,you make think heroku as managed vps but you would have a hard time proving that.

Support just sent me this https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/deploying-executable-jar-files

I will try it.

I did some investigation and it seems like Heroku doesn't support generic TCP and UDP ports.
