Most of my active apps these days are on Heroku, and they pretty much all use Heroku's PostgreSQL databases. Granted, the vast majority of them handle almost no traffic.
The exception is flying-sphinx.com, which in the scheme of things isn't massive, but handles around 30 queries/minute, every one of which hits the db at least once. With the proper database indices in place, my API's calls take generally 30-50ms, and I'm on the crane ($50/month) plan. There's been one minor (a few minutes) outage in the past six months, plus two major AWS/Heroku incidents, though from memory only one of those affected the database - to some extent, you're at the mercy of Amazon. Hopefully those are some useful data points. -- Pat On 12/10/2012, at 12:34 PM, Fabio Vilela wrote: > Hi guys, hope you all are having a happy Friday!! > > is anyone using this postgresql on heroku? what can you say about speed and > reliability? > > I'd like to hear any comments on that before I begin any kind of testing :) > > thanks, > Fabio. > > > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Ruby or Rails Oceania" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected]. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/rails-oceania?hl=en. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby or Rails Oceania" group.
