Moving to Render from Heroku

Tornado upgrade to 6.2, and moving to Render

As we know now Heroku has removed their free tier, and since then many have been looking for a PaaS solution that matches as a good replacement. After looking around for a few, I found the best match seems to be Render. The only draw back is the $7/month cost for using a PostgreSQL database. However, you do get 90 days free on it, and since you don’t get charged for suspending the database or service it seems like a best choice for quickly prototyping and testing ideas and small scale web apps and REST APIs. So far, I have been nothing but happy with the migration for an affordable PaaS solution that can scale up when needed! You can find my full article below:
