Shelly Cloud, Heroku & EngineYard Pros & Cons Giedrius Rimkus
& Viačeslavas Čičkinas Ruby Conference Lithuania 2013 April
That's not a battle It's not about which one is
better.. it's all about showing the pros & cons of those platforms.. In the end.. it's up to you to choose the right one!
Cloud Computing? Pay-per-use (or pay-as-you-go) On-demand Computing resources
So what are those services? Delivering platform as a service
Deployments are done by pushing with git Competence needed? No! It's simple as that!
What is PaaS?
Example of git push at ShellyCloud $ git push myapp-production
master Counting objects: 74, done. Delta compression using up to 4 threads. Compressing objects: 100% (47/47), done. Writing objects: 100% (47/47), 5.60 KiB, done. Total 47 (delta 39), reused 0 (delta 0) remote: remote: ---> Received push to cloud 'mymapp-production' remote: ---> Checking Gemfile remote: ---> Deploying your application remote: remote: ---> Deployment on server app1 started remote: ---> Deployment on server app1 finished remote: remote: ---> Deployment successful To
[email protected]
:myapp-production.git 9ce50af..00a4ab4 master -> master
Example of git push at Heroku $ git push heroku
master -----> Heroku receiving push -----> Rails app detected -----> Compiled slug size is 8.0MB -----> Launching... done, v1 http://sushi.herokuapp.com deployed to Heroku
Example of git push at EngineYard Either through the web
dashboard or CLI 1. GUI: 2. CLI: ey deploy --environment='example_production' --app=" new_rails_app" --account="Example"
