  Great if the pricing works out for you. Unfortunately most cases if I used Heroku I'd drive the cost way too high, as Heroku (or cloud) pricing doesn't change with local developer costs.

    That's why I said 'equivalents'. There are also application engines in major cloud providers, base on your technology. Some tech stack can run serverless. For self-host scenarios, things like Dokku could also work.

      It's not a matter of which product you use, more that "setup on unmanaged" often infers huge enough savings that you can pay for more engineers. Cause in many places the cost of fully loaded experienced engineer might be cheaper than managed services.
