> The more I think about it, the better value Heroku appears to be. Not really. Netlify for $9/mo to serve static content over Akamai's network. API Gateway + Lambda + Dynamo for pennies per month when your traffic is low. If you get linked to by HN or some other source of massive traffic, you may pay ~$100 or so, but it will scale up (and back down) with no extra effort. This setup is basically the same price as the $10/mo Linode for most side projects and will outperform the $250/mo Heroku setup.
