>Heroku is unbelievably expensive.

only if developer/devops/admin time is free and for most it isnt. if 60 vs 250 /month is a breaking factor for you and your use case: go for it. if you need the software deployed to make real business it just doesnt matter.

No wonder AWS can get away with the prices they have since people like you (and many more VC funded startups) simply have zero care about the price.

For people who run "real" businesses (meaning you need to have a larger income than expense [meaning, everything not VC-funded]), price is always a part of the calculations, even when it comes to hosting.

$250/mo per process. And with appliku it is done automatically so there is no need for admin/devops time.
