We get quite a few hosting related questions, so I wonder whether it might be helpful if we can have a thread that talks about the kind of production set-ups everyone is using?

Do you use a dedicated server? VPS? The Cloud? Or…?

I use a DigitalOcean VPS. They just bumped up their pricing to be competitive with Vultr/Linode and I find their service the easiest and fastest to use.

I don’t really know much about AWS but I like to have full control of my server and apps, which is why I use a VPS.

Heroku. It’s been working well enough for us and we have other applications hosted there as well.
