Comment on On Cloud: Show off your rails or merb app with free hosting

Comments

It's quite different from Heroku. With Heroku you're deploying your app to a foreign hosting service. With oncloud you're running it locally while making it accessible publicly. No need to push anything anywhere and you have full access to your local filesystem.

Oh, that's cool. I didn't realize that about the service at first. They serve two very different and very useful niches.
