Valuable for us was the fast deployment. This means the time to market is improved without pain for developers.
Heroku accelerates time to market, enhancing system development by removing AWS management complexities. It simplifies application deployment without server maintenance worries and offers a Node.js-friendly environment with efficient continuous integration and database management, although pricing becomes costly with database scaling. Increasing slug size limits and improving custom CI support responsiveness and eliminating required daily process restarts could enhance user experience. Heroku's scalable infrastructure ensures high availability, managing billions of requests seamlessly.
