Recently Heroku will shutdown free Heroku Dynos, free Heroku Postgres, and free Heroku Data for Redis after November 28th, 2022.
So, af...

Deta is the best choice if you want everything for free forever and unlimited space for database and applications. I think Deta is sponsored by the German government.
What's their end goal? How do they earn money? I get something like firebase. But this is like, sponsored by German gov because they just want devs to be happy and productive. Maybe capitalism created this trust isues in me, but I need to know what do they get from this😃
I think maybe the EU wants to compete with the US by expanding their influence around the world. And the Internet is an option for this reason. However, here is Deta 's answer to the question how they make money:
Cuber is also an alternative to Heroku.
You define a
Cuberfile
with about ~10 lines of code that describe your application, then you typecuber deploy
in your terminal to deploy your app on Kubernetes on any cloud provider.Cuber is free and open source and Kubernetes is usually much cheaper than a PaaS like Heroku. Also if you use Cuber you don't have to deal with all the complexity of Kubernetes.
Thanks, I will add this in my list. 🤗⭐
wow thats acutally kind of kubernets i am looking. , let me check
Be extremely careful when signing up for the "free" tier of any of these services, particularly ones that require a credit card (most of them). Use a disposable, one-time card if you can.
Not mentioning any names, but I've experienced firsthand some extremely shady practices that have ended up with with me receiving unexpected billing for services I never used.
Wow thanks, what services do you know that offers disposable one time card?
Revolut
Thank you, is it available outside the UK ?
Yep, it is.
Additionally, having tried a good few of these in the past, I can highly recommend both Netlify and Vercel. I'm also currently playing with Deta and it is super cool. Great user experience.
It says when one door closes another opens. I just learnt there were a lot of alternatives to heroku. Could heroku have had a better approach to this without taking away free-tier? I think instead of the free-tier, maybe users could have a limited free usage. Maybe 550MB storage free and when you exceed that you'd pay the extra.
i think they could have made the free tier only available using a credit card like aws or azure or gcp do and still maintain their fans
Which one has the ability to push via command line as simple as Heroku's
git push heroku master
?Well, I let you know.
@albertc44 Render has kind of that, but maybe simpler. You put a render.yaml in your project root. It describes what services you want at render (i.e. postgresql) and how to configure it.
Then connect your project on GitHub to your render account. When you do
git push
to GitHub it automatically deploys to render (if you want to).fly.io with the
fly deploy
command
Glad to see Netlify, CloudFlare, Deta and Render in this list; all very interesting hosting options for different purposes. I'm especially interested in seeing where Deta ends up in another year or two.
But one of the most complete for multiple purposes is missing, and that is Supabase:
Koyeb is a very good alternative I found lately.
Koyeb is a developer-friendly serverless platform to deploy apps globally. No-ops, servers, or infrastructure management.
I wrote an article on how to migrate from Heroku to Koyeb here
qoddi.com is an alternative to Heroku and compatible with Heroku buildpacks.
Add Fleek to the list. It's as simple as deploying on netlify but supports web3 so your page can be stored forever on IPFS (even if your domain name expires) without the need to deal with the complexities of web3 development.
Nice list, I never knew there were actually that many 😆
I'd also add that Vercel is a nice, also pretty similar to Netlify.
Thank you Meshv for compiling this list, indeed a great one. 🚀
I would also like to mention Webiny as an alternative - it will also allow users to Embrace Serverless.
For a little over two years, we have been building Webiny. It's a Headless CMS you can use for your personal blog ... but it's not only a Headless CMS: it's a fully-featured application framework that you can use to scaffold unique applications that will have access to the existing setup we have built via plugins. More details on leveraging the power of serverless can be found here.
You should 100% add Cycle to this list - it has a much higher ceiling than heroku, railway, rendr, etc... but maintains approachability for developers that are keen to stay focused on code.
Caprover
like Doku, but more easier
caprover.com
Is possible to host a Strapi project on Netlify?
This link would be helpful..
Heroku... Heroku everywhere.
And Strapi + Digital Ocean link is not available.
Time to pay I guess. lol
Patr can also be a great option. It provides features like Deployments, Static Sites, Databases, CI/CD, Managing Domains, URLs, Secrets on the free plan.
thank for share with us 😊 now I got to know some new! ( dev utile )
What about Vercel?
which one is support laravel ? just like "simple-heroku".
Hey, I have already told in this. Railway is providing laravel support. So just check it out....
Try Railway. It can handle anything and has decent free terms. You only pay if you exceed your limits and even then it’s very cheap compared to other types of hosting. Really good database support too.
Its good to know that there are so many alternatives to Heroku its going to limit the damage of having it go behind a paywall 😂
Thanks mate for sharing these option , this list contains good option....
Kinsta is also an alternative, however not free as the ones mentioned in the list but it comes with $20 credit you can use to try the service risk free..
Thank you for the list
That Railway make sense,i will try it out thanks👍👍👍
I'm guessing Cyclic will be my next go to
Thanks for your list..
I need something that runs my JVM, a Postgres instance and maybe later reddis
render.com/ seems the right choice?
ohh thanks for this post
Wow. Awesome post 🤯
Thanks
Great list!
Thanks 😊
Railway cool
Thanks ! @meshvpatel18
thanks for sharing this
Thanks for the list, just giving my 2 cents: for Elixir developers we have gigalixir.com/ good to prototype and test small apps with no cost.
Northflank is also very powerful, but it isn't free completely.
damn ! this was much needed !
Meteor Galaxy also offers a free tier incl. light Mongo. If you intend to make an app with pub/sub, mongo, reactivity etc. this is a considerable offer.l
Nice nice nice
Thanks
People can practice how to migrate their projects and get familiar with the new services, which is good.
regarding the self host PaaS alternative, I made an article
dev.to/timhub/self-host-heroku-alt...
It is focusing on PaaS and self host
Thank you for that...really needs it at this time
Hey 👋 all, just share this with your friends so that they can get to know about this...
Thanks 👍.
Thanks for sharing really appreciated I really love it the whole content inside my webpage
Nice!
Hi,
I have 15 free PostgreSQL add-ons available.
This is still an add-on so it appears on Heroku and you can use a dump to copy your data :)
Drop me a PM if you want one ;)
Hi, I want the PostgreSQL add-ons. can you give me.
Hi Sakar,
Sure!
I just need your Heroku email to send you the invitation :)
Hi Adrien,
This my email id:
sakar@easy-cloud.in
Thankyou
I've just sent an invitation and an email with explainations :)
i want them
Hi,
Send me (in private) your Heroku email and I'll send you the invitation :)
Here is a helpful resource I was shared recently:
Provides suggestions for a variety of Web dev services that have great free tiers.
ripienaar / free-for-dev
A list of SaaS, PaaS and IaaS offerings that have free tiers of interest to devops and infradev
free-for.dev
Developers and Open Source authors now have a massive amount of services offering free tiers, but it can be hard to find them all to make informed decisions.
This is a list of software (SaaS, PaaS, IaaS, etc.) and other offerings that have free tiers for developers.
The scope of this particular list is limited to things that infrastructure developers (System Administrator, DevOps Practitioners, etc.) are likely to find useful. We love all the free services out there, but it would be good to keep it on topic. It's a bit of a grey line at times so this is a bit opinionated; do not be offended if I do not accept your contribution.
This list is the result of Pull Requests, reviews, ideas and work done by 1100+ people. You too can help by sending Pull Requests to add more services or by remove ones whose offerings have…
Yea, I have visited this link. But I thought it it quite big list So If I am going to add this then my list probably too large..
What about Clever Cloud API?
What is the best one for Docker containers?
Fly .io can support docker images and one more is dokku.com/ But I think is not free... You can check it out and let me know.
Check out Acorn
Nice list! will add some of the list to here as well

I just joined Cyclic and I got a free $10 credit. It's awesome. Try it @Cyclic
