Move from heroku

Move from Heroku

Heroku dynos abstract processes behind a managed runtime. Reflex brings that same git-push deploy ergonomic to servers you own — without dyno sleeping, add-on markup, or opaque routing layers. You get direct SSH access, custom PHP versions, and Brain playbooks for incidents Heroku would have required a support ticket to resolve.

  • Procfile processes map to Reflex queue workers and daemons with automatic restart and resource monitoring.
  • Heroku Config Vars export as KEY=VALUE — bulk-import into Reflex's encrypted environment variable vault per site.
  • Add-ons (Postgres, Redis, Memcached) replace with self-managed or DO/AWS managed services connected to your Reflex server.
  • See the Heroku comparison for positioning, then provision a server and deploy your first release through Pipeline.

See Reflex fix production — not just page you

PagerDuty would call you right now. Reflex completes detect → diagnose → fix → verify — often in under 30 seconds.

Interactive walkthrough: trigger a php-fpm failure and watch the playbook repair it.
