Ask YC: Heroku for Django?

7 pointsbayareaguy2 comments

I'm not a web developer but there's a chance I'll need to help someone I know do some Django work soon. I'm wondering if anyone knows if there is an equivalent to Heroku for Django/Google App Engine.

What do you mean by Django/Google App Engine? They are two different things. As for your question, I dont think that there are any Herokus for django right now although MediaTemple.net is working on one- http://mediatemple.net/labs/gsdjango/ . Here are some more django-friendly webhosts- http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/DjangoFriendlyWebHosts . http://djangofriendly.com/hosts/

I was thinking of http://code.google.com/appengine/articles/django.html

Thanks for the reference to MediaTemple - they look a little like Heroku without the web-based editor.
