…, which (in our minds) makes things even more secure. Most of Code School is up on Heroku anyways, so it seemed like a great fit.
So... even if you've done it before or you've never programmed before in your life.. it may be time to dust off those chops and head over to TryRuby.org . If you do choose to login to Code School as you're doing the course, we'll even give you a badge for completing the course.
If you really dig these in-browser coding …
Python has joined the growing ranks of officially-supported languages on Heroku's polyglot platform , going into public beta as of today. Python is the most-requested language for Heroku, and it brings with it the top-notch Django web framework.

…Pusher update on the next tick, thus not affecting response times. But then we moved from Heroku to RailsMachine and their Passenger stack, so we wanted to find a way to keep the Pusher update out of the request cycle but still "realtime".
So John devised a genius plan of starting up a thread in Passenger that runs EventMachine. We can still use the trigger_async method and take advantage of EventMachine's IO goodness, and only suffer hits in response time …
…weeks before I joined :) ) - the decision was made that CrowdHired would be hosted on Heroku. Shortly after I came on board, Heroku released their new Cedar stack and we quickly migrated across to that. I find it kinda amusing that we're currently in alpha , deploying to a platform that's in beta. Latest and greatest FTW. While migrating to the new stack we also settled on Thin as our web server. The Cedar stack allows you to use whatever web server …
As you all know, Matz is now a member of Heroku. He'll have official support to hire some Ruby committers and assemble a full time team to maintain the development of the Ruby platform. He confirmed that he'll not move to San Francisco and that the pace of development of Ruby should not change that much, at least not at first. He'll do his work as he has always done it, from Matsue, his home town, and he'll remain a fellow researcher at NaCl, the Japanese company …

…only sends a 304 Not Modified to your browser. If you're viewing my example on Heroku, you can see Varnish adding another layer of caching on top of it, using those ETags. It makes your backend really snappy!
Our backend needs to be private, so we'll need some form of authentication. In most cases (more than you'd think even) basic authentication will work. This can be easily done inside the Backend:: ApplicationController , by adding one simple line: …
Say, your code runs on Heroku. Heroku's infrastructure runs on Amazon's EC2. Therefore Heroku is prone to problems with EC2. If a provider like Heroku tells you they have a service level agreement in place that guarantees a minimum amount of availability per month or per year, that's worth squat to you, because they in turn rely on other external services, that may or may not offer different SLAs. This is not specific to Heroku, it's just an obvious example. …
