Heroku
A platform-as-a-service offering for hosting applications, now being scaled back by Salesforce.
About
Heroku is a cloud platform-as-a-service (PaaS) offering that enables developers to build, run, and operate applications. It was launched in 2007 as a startup and acquired by Salesforce in 2011. Heroku supports various programming languages and provides services like managed relational databases (Heroku Postgres) and tools for AI workloads. It runs customer workloads in Linux containers called dynos, managed by a dyno manager that handles restarts and workload migration in case of hardware failure. Salesforce is currently shifting resources away from Heroku, stopping new enterprise subscriptions and scaling back new feature development, while continuing to provide updates and support for existing customers.
