FAQ's
What is Heroku used for?
Heroku is used for deploying web applications. Its platform architecture simplifies many of the scaling and security controls, making it easier and less expensive to manage than many other hosting platforms.
What is Heroku Connect?
Heroku Connect is a tool available to Heroku users that securely syncs select data from Salesforce to a database in Heroku, which can be used by a web app. The sync is two-way and near real-time. It is the fastest and most efficient way to use Salesforce data in your web app.
Is Heroku Free?
Heroku has a free tier for students with a valid .edu email address. However, the free tier for hobbyists is no longer available. Unfortunately, this tier, previously available, was abused by people who intended illegal use, and therefore, we could no longer offer it. In its place, Heroku has created entry-level tiers at a very low cost.
Is Heroku Dead?
Heroku is still very popular among startups and enterprise businesses. Due to its easy setup and low management requirements, it remains a popular choice.
Heroku is led by a large team in San Francisco, where engineers work on new features and are committed to keeping the platform ahead of the curve.
