EB supports docker deploys now, which helps with the version stuff, though can create it's own difficulties. True that EB deployment is very one-function though. Tacking anything on is hacky and gets thrown behind the scenes, so is hard to track and audit
I can't recall a single time I had a problem deploying to Heroku, including the first deploys. Heroku is lightyears ahead of EB. Speaking of deployment, I might try Convox sometime in the future.
OTOH you can use RDS with Heroku, just be careful to have them in the same region.
