For those of you using Django, where do you host it?

Do you use someone else's hosting or run your own server?

I've started running Django on Google's app engine using the django-nonrel code.

..though I've been told it's like taking a hooker for a long walk.

Yeah, see, I've been running Flask on App Engine. It works fine and all, but it feels like I'm jumping through a lot of hoops for Big Table.

Shared hosting at webfaction. For the app (medical documents workflow) and scale (for small company, < 50 employees) webfaction is great. I could probably find a cheaper host but being able to work with support staff who actually understand coding and syadmin work is worth the slight extra cost.

Amazon EC2 is always a good option. https://www.djangy.com/ looks promising as a Heroku for Django.

I like the look of djangy.com as well. I also noticed stable.io on HN a while back and I think another one (I don't remember).

Currently I use webfaction.com for two (nearly dead) projects but I'm considering linode.com or djangy.com for my next one. I've found webfaction to have great support but their RAM/cost ratio isn't so good.

Shared hosting on Dreamhost. Reasonably easy to get setup and going. It's just a sandbox right now.

Linode, their admin is great and been a customer for a long time, just a set up your self kind of deal but stackscripts are great for getting a server running quickly.

GoGrid. Quite happy with them. http://alpha.beepl.com:8889
