I was very happy with fly.io - migrating my Rails app from Heroku was an absolute no brainer, took me like half an hour.

Then I tried Django, and all hell broke loose... Still some ways to go to catch up with Heroku on all fronts I suppose, but for Rails, clear recommendation.




I recently started the migration of my Django projects from Heroku to Fly. To test things out, I created this simple Django project. You might want to fork it and test whatever you need. I run into a few issues as well, all of them are described in the readme.

Thanks, that actually helped me figure it out! :D


For those watching who want to move over a Rails app, I wrote the guide at https://fly.io/docs/rails/getting-started/migrate-from-herok...

Sorry to hear Django was a pain. There’s a guide in the works for launching Django apps, but I can’t remember the exact status of that. https://community.fly.io/ is a good place to search for others who migrated or ask for help on there.
