Soundslice replaced Heroku

Now: Self-managed application deployment on AWS EC2 and RDS, running 13 years

$0net saved per year, after running costs

Adrian Holovaty moved Soundslice from Heroku to an AWS stack with custom AMIs, autoscaling and RDS. In the article comments he reports roughly $120/month for both setups; the move bought deployment control and redundancy rather than lower costs.
