I don't know what 10-second manual scaling means.
Our problem with Heroku was that we didn't know how many units to allocate, and ended up way over-spending. But if we had tweaked it to be just right, we would have been screwed by an unexpected surge.
- shykes 16y agoIt means that you type 'dotcloud scale' and wait 10 seconds :) We offer resource usage data, so you can make an informed decision when scaling. You are correct that a very sudden surge can still screw you - but we are preparing an alert feature to help you mitigate this.
- pbiggar 16y agoI don't mean to be negative, but I like your product a lot less without autoscaling. If it's hard to do, then it'll be nearly impossible for me; if its not hard, then I'll be annoyed that I'm writing code that you guys could have trivially written.
