Looking for Hosting For My Project in Ruby on Rails

I'm just starting with Rails and I've found Heroku the easiest Rails hosting provider. They don't give you a shared server machine, you upload your application directly, and there's even a free usage tier if your app is low-traffic.

Using git, you just push the app to Heroku with your credentials and you're set.

Also, you can upgrade or downgrade the maximum performance as needed by the spikes of traffic so you never pay for more that you use.

We've been using EngineYard for 8 months and have been very impressed. They're built on top of AWS.

I've found webfaction.com to be a great host.

Rails Playground has been good to me.
