Container and Runtime Performance Improvements

news , Product Manager

Today we’re sharing three performance enhancements that we have recently rolled out to apps running in Private Spaces:

  • Dynos upgraded to the latest generation infrastructure for 10-15% perf improvement
  • More consistent performance for Small Private and Shield Space dynos
  • Optimized clock source selection

Heroku is a fully managed platform-as-a-service (PaaS) and we work tirelessly to continuously improve and enhance the experience of running apps on our platform. Unlike lower-level infrastructure-as-a-service systems, improvements are applied automatically to apps and databases and require no action or intervention from app developers to benefit.

That means that no action is required on...

Heroku Postgres via PrivateLink Is Now Generally Available

news , Product Management Director, Heroku Data

As always, security and trust are top of mind with everything we do at Heroku.

Improving the SSO Experience: CLI Login and Certificate Management

news , Product Marketing Manager

We are happy to announce two major improvements to our SSO experience for Heroku Enterprise customers: easier SSO login for users via the Heroku CLI, and the ability for admins to add more than one certificate at the Enterprise Team level.

Logging into all your different cloud applications can be a pain. We know that many of you like to use Heroku via the command line interface and in your web browser side-by-side, and until now that has meant logging in via SSO separately to each interface. You'll now be redirected from the CLI to the Dashboard to complete your SSO login to Heroku, after which your SSO credentials will be synced.

We've also made the administrative experience for...

Today we are happy to announce Heroku Shield, a new addition to our Heroku Enterprise line of products. Heroku Shield introduces new capabilities to Dynos, Postgres databases and Private Spaces that make Heroku suitable for high compliance environments such as healthcare apps regulated by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). With Heroku Shield, the power and productivity of Heroku is now easily available to a whole new class of strictly regulated apps.
