heroku like deploy tool for vps

I'm trying to setup a Geotrust SSL certificate for my Heroku app using the SSL Endpoint addon and the instructions at https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/ssl-endpoint.

I generated my public key from my private key using:

openssl rsa -in server.orig.key -out server.key

and added to the heroku certs:

heroku certs:add server.crt server.key

Everything seemed to be fine.

I'm creating a simple site for my family and which is basically just static files (I don't want a CMS).

I've tried using heroku and google app engine but heroku wind down the server which yields a 30s delay on some requests and google app engine takes up to 500ms to serve a static page.

So my question is, are there any alternatives to heroku and google app engine for hosting content in the cloud

I tried to install Heroku in Ubuntu using this script

wget -qO- https://toolbelt.heroku.com/install-ubuntu.sh | sh

and I get this error while installing heroku-toolbelt package

Failed to fetch http://toolbelt.heroku.com/ubuntu/./foreman-0.60.0.deb Size mismatch E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?

I tried to download "http://toolbelt.heroku.c

We host our application on Heroku. I'm wondering what can I do as a backup plan when Heroku doesn't work.

If I keep a backup of everything on Rackspace, when Heroku goes down, can I change to Rackspace in the moment? Any idea how that's done?

Thanks

I have been using Heroku when deploying my rails server. But for my school project I was asked to deploy the app I have been working on to a linux instance so it can be deployed on the schools cloud.

I'm trying to install the Heroku Toolbelt for a Django project in Lubuntu as described on the Heroku site:

$ wget -qO- https://toolbelt.heroku.com/install-ubuntu.sh | sh

However, this produces the following error:

sh: 1: Usage:: not found sh: 4: Syntax error: EOF in backquote substitution

What's going on here?

I'm planning to set up a Django site on Heroku. It will run on Heroku's Cedar stack, which allows Python apps, but doesn't include or support HTTP upstream caching with Varnish like the other stacks do.

It will be a very read-heavy site and I'd like to use Varnish for HTTP caching.

I understand the title is not very suitable for this question.But,I have developed a facebook application in PHP,that will store images of users on server and create a link of that image.Since heroku doesn't allow to store files on their server,i am unable to move those files from /tmp folder to permanent folder.I don't have a credit card so can't signup with Amazon s3 storage to use it with herok

Heroku has added Java for a new enterprise focused service so companies and IT organizations can build and run Java applications in the cloud. In a press release, Heroku boasts it will allow companies to deploy mission-critical apps in minutes instead of months.
