I've heard lots of good things about Docker, and lots of seemingly valid criticisms of Docker. I love the concept - I'd benefit from having a development environment that's identical to the environment I'm deploying to.

I'd love to hear from people with significant experience deploying apps. What's your take on Heroku's approach to using Docker?

Honestly, if anything, I think Heroku needs servers in Asia

The announcement I would love to hear from Heroku: "We found out about Moore's law and are passing some of that on to you."

As far as I know, their dyno specs have never improved or decreased in cost.

This is coming from someone who loves Heroku, but wish the dynos were better.

They have new pricing coming soon that includes new dynos but they're not getting any cheaper - and ditching 24/7 free dynos.

According to that link, the price for 1X and 2X dynos is dropping from $35/month to $25/month and from $70/month to $50/month, respectively. That's cheaper, no?

Heroku is my goto for sites because I can throw my fun little test hobbyist sites on there too.

I might actually have to invest the time to figure out how to host Node/IO on someone else if their free tier goes away

Completely agree - this is especially the case when you get to scale where the 1x and 2x dynos break down because their performance is very variable, so you have to go to PX which are $$$

Following the instruction for "heroku plugins:install heroku-docker" and got

Installing heroku-docker... failed ! Could not install heroku-docker. Please check the URL and try again.

I've already upgraded to the latest Toolbelt. Thoughts?

dickeytk2• 11 years ago

you sure you're on the latest version? 3.35.0?

bussiere• 11 years ago

same here ...

Mayber not version usable under nux ?

liquimoon2• 11 years ago

Hmm, looks like the toolbelt website (https://toolbelt.heroku.com/) is not for the latest toolbelt?!

I updated using gem update and got the latest 3.35.1.

But then when I updated heroku gem, I got the deprecation warning... ! The `heroku` gem has been deprecated and replaced with the Heroku Toolbelt. ! Download and install from: https://toolbelt.heroku.com ! For API access, see: https://github.com/heroku/heroku.rb
