Subject: Node.js hosting similar to Heroku
Hi,

Is there anything similar to Heroku for Node.js?

Is anyone developing a solution like that or interested in doing so?

Thanks

Heroku is very expensive.

Amazon just release micro instances today:
http://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2010/09/09/announcing-micro...

Very affordable + total control = no brainer.

Also, you can further reduce that cost by purchasing reserved instances (3
year term == ~ $7/mo + bandwidth).

I have only seen cloud hosting for node, not so much git driven
deployment and slugs and so on, but cloud hosting none the less?

Anything specific?

You still have to install and manage it.

Maybe using those small instances (cheap but maybe not fast) and
develop a heroku-solution would be great.

Your thoughts?

The only thing you would need to do is create a post-update hook for git that automatically updates and restarts node.js..
It's not that hard to achieve on your own.

Whoa! That comes out to around $15 a month... thats dirt cheap and
good because hopefully you'll have the cashflow to support expanding
beyond micro instances when you need it.

There's also Joyent and Nodjitsu.

Thanks,

It will be similar to what was available during the node knockout
contest, i.e. `git push` deployment, system analytics and
instrumentation. Stay tumed. :)

You could go slicehost and just build from source. Slap a frontend
(ngnix, haproxy, etc...) and add more slices as needed.

As long as you don't do anything with WebSockets.

I haven't had to purchase node.js hosting yet, so I can't really give
any recommendations. I was merely commenting on the fact that you
can't do anything WebSocket-related when it comes to nginx, haproxy,
or most likely any other reverse proxy that doesn't have a workaround
for WebSocket's latest non-HTTP handshake.

Any idea what browser version make use of this handshake? I've been testing
a node server behind an apache reverse proxy for awhile now, and it's worked
fine for me in Firefox and Chrome. Does the issue only appear in dev builds
at the moment?

Any browser that implements draft76 or newer of the WebSocket
protocol. So that would include the likes of Firefox 4, Chrome 6+, and
any browser using the Flash WebSocket applet.

Ah, good to know. Fortunately, I only need to use the reverse proxy on my
dev server, since I'm sharing several projects on the same system and some
of them rely on PHP. :(

you can use TCP-based load-balancing, which haproxy has support for,
but then you dont get *any* of the http features from haproxy

v0.3.0 of http://github.com/nodejitsu/node-http-proxy just got pushed.

should be able to help doing http proxying. it's also able to proxy inside
of existing http.Server instances, which is nice since it will work with
Connect and other frameworks.

currently working on getting some websocket and socket.io tests going.

Right, TCP mode makes it *almost* useless for most common web server
setups. Haproxy works great with draft75 and non-WebSocket traffic in
HTTP mode, but I just wish someone would incorporate a temporary
workaround for WebSockets since there are popular browsers that have
been using draft76 for some time now and it doesn't look like the
protocol is going to get closer to HTTP compliant handshakes anytime
soon.
