Ask HN: Tips on Migrating from Heroku to AWS?
6 by rememberlenny | 7 comments on Hacker News.
I highly value the ease of deployment and monitoring found on Heroku and wonder what the modern way to setup something similar is on AWS? I know of Kubernetes and the CloudFoundary stack, but I feel like there must be some out of the box AMI's that I just dont know about. I have a Rails hobby project that is costing me ~$200+/- a month because its on the heroku ecosystem. The app is not too wild, but occasionally takes some batch processes which force me to make some spin up higher quality services (increase Redis memory, increase processing power/"worker" count, etc). Can anyone point me in a direction worth exploring?
