Heroku is a PaaS (Platform as a Service) that allows you to deploy applications without worrying about the underlying infrastructure.
The trial installation includes all of the resources needed to enable GRAX backups and the GRAX datalake.
If you are new to GRAX, we recommend starting with the trial as you can always upgrade and migrate resources and data later.
If you are setting up GRAX for production, we recommend deploying GRAX to Heroku .
To quickly and easily deploy a GRAX trial on Heroku click the "Deploy to Heroku" button below:
This will provision the following resources:
A Heroku dyno with the GRAX Application
A Heroku Postgresql Add-on for GRAX Application state
An S3 Storage Add-on for CRM data
A GRAX Add-on to setup the datalake
The GRAX Application installed on Heroku takes advantage of GRAX's automatic update tools, meaning that it automatically updates to the latest version of GRAX every day. This ensures that you always have the latest features and bug fixes without needing to manually update the application. Short of configuration changes or database maintenance, you should not need to interact with the Heroku application directly.
By default, Heroku applications generate a random URL at which the application will be hosted. This can be discovered by clicking the "Open App" button on the Heroku application's dashboard. If you are interested in setting up a custom domain, this can be accomplished via the Heroku application's "settings" page whenever you'd like.
