Aki Iskandar is an entrepreneur and software architect. He owns and operates two small software companiesone is a consultancy, specializing in Ruby on Rails and native iOS development, and the other provides an online marketing platform for small companies. This online service has been completely built using Ruby on Rails, and is hosted on the Heroku infrastructure. Aki has launched other subscription-based online services, before the days of cloud computing, claiming that he was spending more time administering the servers (load balancing, databases, replication, web servers, e-mail servers, monitoring, file syncs, and so on) than writing code for the applications. Today, he recommends that his clients take the cloud computing route over self-hosting, with very few exceptions. His favorite cloud provider is Heroku.
Prior to starting his companies, he spent 14 years as a consultant. During that time, he was a consultant for various large companies, including Microsoft, Compuware, Progressive Insurance, Allstate Insurance, KeyBank, Ernst & Young, and Charles Schwab. In his last full-time position, which was almost three years ago, he served as an enterprise architect at PNC Bank (as a core member of PNC's Enterprise Architecture team, and he also co-chaired their Architecture Review Board). You can read Aki's blog and learn more about his companies on his personal website www.iskandar.us. He lives with his son, Justin, in the suburbs of Cleveland, Ohio.
Andrea Mostosi is a passionate software developer. In 2003, he started at high school with a single-node LAMP stack and he grew up by adding more languages, components, and nodes. He graduated from Milan and worked for several web-related projects. He is currently working with data, trying to discover information hidden behind huge datasets.
I would like to thank my girlfriend, Khadija, who lovingly supports me in everything I do. I would also like to thank the people I collaborated with, for fun or for work, for everything they taught me. Finally, I'd also like to thank Packt Publishing and its staff for this opportunity to contribute to this project.

Cloud application development is "the new black". With the advent of server virtualization, hardware resources have become cheaper. You can buy hardware on demand and pay only for the time you use it. The next wave of virtualization is that of software virtualization, that is, having the ability to use available software on demand and build your own apps on top of it. Here too, you pay only for what you use and how long you use it. The Heroku Platform as a Service ( PaaS ) is a software platform that provides a combination of the underlying operation system resources, language runtime, and supporting software to help you build your own web apps on demand.
This book on Heroku cloud application development is intended to introduce you to the fundamentals of the Heroku Platform as a Service, and help you to understand the rich feature set of the Heroku platform that enables building powerful and scalable web apps. In addition, this book also showcases techniques to deploy and troubleshoot the web apps deployed on Heroku and helps you understand the nuances of the choices you have to make while building apps for the Heroku environment. And that isn't all. You will also be presented with the best practices of using Heroku for developing web apps as well as getting a feel for the advanced aspects of the platform. The book also educates the user on how to securely use the Heroku platform for developing production-ready and high-performance web apps.
