- ProblemFactory 12y agoThanks for the suggestion. However, for now I'd like to avoid building my entire app "the Heroku way", and keep the PostgreSQL server hosted on the same server or at least the same network as the rest of the app. But you are right in that perhaps a fully managed PostgreSQL server is the way to go for reliability.
- benologist 12y agoI don't think you're required to move anything, when you create an app and add the database you're given the db credentials and can access it from whatever you want and it scales/bills independently from the hosting platform. There's also AWS: http://aws.amazon.com/rds/postgresql/ http://aws.amazon.com/rds/postgresql/
