How I migrated from Heroku to Digital Ocean with Chef and Capistrano

I'm planning to move away from Heroku too, partly because of the routing system issues you mention in your article, but also because I want to sharpen my sysadmin fu. Have you considered https://www.cloud66.com/ because it seems like a nice tradeoff between going "bare metal all the way" and Heroku's comfy environment.

I've tried their service a few weeks ago, but they had a problem related to my particular Gemfile so I abandoned it for the moment. Their product is great and I'm sure they will iron out these small bugs, but for now it's not a valid option for me.

DigitalOcean recently became fully integrated with Cloud66.com just last week. It's a great way to easily spin up a new server, and echo's our mantra of simple cloud hosting.

I love the idea behind this software. I just wish it worked with Django.

Cloud66 is awesome I should say, they take the pain of having to do all the groundwork yourself, which is so freakin awesome ! Are there any similar providers to cloud66, apart from Heroku? (and Engineyard ofcourse)
