Heroku is one of the oldest cloud platforms created using the PaaS (Platform as a Service) model. In comparison to Pivotal Cloud Foundry, Heroku doesn't have built-in support for Spring Cloud applications. It complicates our model a little because we can't use a platform's services to enable typical microservices components, including service discovery, a configuration server, or a circuit breaker. In spite of this, Heroku contains some really interesting features that are not provided by Pivotal Web Services.
