Cloud Deployment (IaaS/PaaS)

[Kunal Dabir]

Hi all,

I was curious to know where all of us are deploying all the great apps we have been working on. I will create a formal poll if need be, but this conversation is just to check the overall interest in the topic and get the feet wet.

Segregate your response into Full-time/professional apps and Hobby/pet projects. Both are important for the discussion. Possible candidates are AWS, Heroku, Google App Engine, Joyent, Rackspace, dotcloud, openshift, cloudfoundry etc.

At work I have seen usage of AWS, Heroku, Rackspace and Custom internal IT infra (most of the time) on various projects. Recently we completed a rails project (fulltime) on heroku.

For my pet/hobby projects, I have been using google app engine and heroku most of the time. Have tried openshift and cloudfoundry but nothing beyond helloworldish there.

I am guessing we could start a discussion thread for specific positive/negative experiences with providers. May be we can schedule a meetup as well.

Regards,

Kunal
