Hello, **Discourse team**!

* * *

_I would like to ask, is it possible to deploy Discourse on Heroku. As of their recent update, it is possible to deploy Docker-based apps._

**This is learn more:**

> **[Container Registry & Runtime (Docker Deploys) | Heroku Dev Center](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/container-registry-and-runtime)**
>
> Heroku Container Registry allows you to deploy your Docker-based app to Heroku. Both Common Runtime and Private Spaces are supported.

**Additional Details**

- Heroku supports both Ruby on Rails and Ember.js.
- Heroku has PostgreSQL and Redis addons.

_Thanks for the help, everyone!_

Have you tried it yourself? Your guess is as good as ours really 🙂

People will eventually try it if they have a legitimate use case for it. I know @j.jaffeux is a fan of Heroku so he might give it a shot at some point in the indeterminate future.

Hello, currently to use Redis addon, you need account validation using credit card, which I haven’t done already. So @j.jaffeux may check into that.

Never checked this (and probably won’t in the near future) but afaik the biggest issue is not redis or db but filesystem.
