If you need this for Python/Django, my startup has over 600 beta users already -- <a href="http://www.djangy.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.djangy.com</a> -- things are looking promising in this space!
I do have a rails app that I just deployed to Heroku, but of course with the acquisition, I am open to alternatives :)<p>The landing page is incredibly vague though, so I'm curious as to what you offer (besides Node.js) that Heroku does not. Things that are important to me:<p>-amazon s3 integration
-database push/pull (specifically mysql)
-custom domain routing
-full-text search integration (akin to heroku's web solr server add-on)
-easy, safe collaboration (akin to sharing projects through the heroku console)<p>I requested access regardless, and I can certainly try it to see if it works and provide feedback on the migration process.
I'd like to find out more about hosting Rails apps on Duostack. How is it different from Heroku, what's the pricing going to be like?<p>Not sure I have the time to participate in the beta though.
This is nice to see -- a new Rails (and Node!) PaaS startup. Given the recent acquisition of Heroku (and my paranoia about the consequences of large companies like Salesforce acquiring small companies like Heroku), this is a good time for a competitor to pop up.
In this space there isn't a 'winner-takes-all'. There is room for lots of startups without killing each other, and contrary to all the naysayers, JS on the sever is HOT!
