[ Heroku Alternatives ] Heroku is planning to start shutting down free dynos and data services

Open SysSn13 opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Starting November 28, 2022, we plan to stop offering free product plans and plan to start shutting down free dynos and data services. We will be sending out a series of email communications to affected users.

Heroku is planning to stop the free-tier service. Most of our workers and website are running on Heroku free-tier service. If you have any other platform in mind, please share it here.

Read more about it here: https://blog.heroku.com/next-chapter.

Thank you @shadyy41, for the suggestion. I tried deploying a web app for lcpredictor on this platform and could do it quickly. Here is the URL for the same: https://lcpredictor.onrender.com We need Redis to run the background workers. Need to figure out a way to use redis on render.com.

Hey @SysSn13, Redis has a free cloud plan that you can probably use. Check this out: https://redis.com/redis-enterprise-cloud/pricing/

Hi @kevinjoshi46b, thanks for sharing this. Btw I tried using render.com's free-tier redis service, and it's working fine.

Ohhh nice, I thought render doesn't provide free redis service.

I've deployed the worker on a dedicated server now. It should work from now on. Thanks!
