a vps,and which hosting site is better to go for and r thr any hosting
sites which assist while deploying rather than just giving
space…thank u

Hi K Nile

If you want a hosting site which assists in deployment then Heroku is an
obvious choice but it’s not a VPS.
http://www.cloud66.com helps you set up heroku style deploys to VPS’s or
your own servers.

Some quality VPS’s you could look at are sold by:

If you can give us more of an idea of what kind of resources your app
will need we can help you find the right VPS provider.

Thanks, Daniel.

like in my site is a user based site whr user can upload things, so want
to
know whether a vps or a shared web host would fulfill the needs.

Start with heroku. its the easiest and free for trying out.

Once its deployed on heroku, Based on the issues or limitations that you
are facing on heroku decide as to whether you need a VPS or shared
hosting
or any other managed hosting services.

like heroku only has 5mb internal memory na , like my site is based on a
user based and a user can upload data, so the space wont be enough na
thats
why planning to use a vps or a shared web host

Say what?

Please read Heroku’s documentation.That is always better than some
article
you once read.

like i read about the memory once in an article,why isnt it true? , how
much does heroku offer in terms of memory

like i have deployed text based normal apps to heroku, but since i wish
to
use paperclip , i need to have a amazon s2 account or something right ,
so
it is better to for a cloud hosting right

Could you reply to the same topic instead of creating new posts? It’s
very annoying.

hmm,my bad,since it was a new subject i choose on keeping a new post for
more productivity

hi i hosted with heroku as u suggested earlier, so how can we increase
the
cloud space in it to store more data

hmmm ,my bad ,since the subject was new a posted a new one

thank u everyone , the information that u provided was really
helpful…

You’re right, you can’t upload files on Heroku servers but it doesn’t
mean
you can’t use Heroku for your kind of project.

Just follow this tutorial to upload directly to
S3 Uploading Files to S3 in Ruby with Paperclip | Heroku Dev Center.

I have been using it for about a years and it works perfect fine. And
now,
I even think it’s better than storing file on my servers.

Cheers

In heroku while using with s3 storage, which plan is better to use
