Windows Azure Versus Heroku/Cloudfoundry

01 Apr 2013

I have been getting ready to deploy my TorchLight 2 ASP.Net MVC4 Application to Windows Azure but noticed even for a test instance it is not free for longer than 3 months. Making a deployment to that sight pretty meaningless. There is definitely an advantage to using Open Source Software if you are going to deploy something for fun and not fore profit.

ASP.NET MVC4 is a nice development environment, they have learned alot from Ruby on Rails so thing I will at least put some blog posts on my experience of using ASP.NET. Probably in comparison to Oracle Applications Express after all that is a significant part of my Day Job at times and like Microsoft , Oracle is not a Pro Open Source Software Provider
