This is awesome, congrats p12dpraneeth! I love that this runs directly in the browser so I can keep my data private. Will it brick my browser if I run it on a 100k+ list though?
That's a great idea! I work at Cloud 66 (http://www.cloud66.com) and we let you build your own Heroku on Azure and benefit from this $500k and Heroku-like simplicity. You can also migrate between cloud providers (including Azure and the ones mentioned) if needed.
We think this is a great way for startups to use the tons of cloud credits they get, instead of letting them go to waste or spending precious time on setting up infrastructure.
I love what Pieter's doing! There may not be a business model at the moment, but getting these products out of the door is a first step. After 12 months, he'll have a good idea of which ideas work, which don't, and what to pursue next. Good luck!
That's a great guide! We realized that a lot of people were spending a lot of time on stuff like this, and that's why we built Cloud 66. We help you to deploy and manage your applications on any cloud (ie. DigitalOcean, AWS, Rackspace etc) - feel free to check us out http://cloud66.com
