Migration Services

Heroku to AWS Migration Services

Codimite migrates Heroku applications, databases, add-ons, and deployment workflows to AWS. Gain greater control over infrastructure, networking, scaling, and cloud operations through a managed migration approach.

Heroku to AWS Migration services

Scale with AWS

Move from Heroku to a Flexible AWS Environment

Gain Greater Infrastructure Control

Design compute, storage, networking, security, and scaling around your application requirements.

Scale Containerized Applications

Run container workloads using Amazon ECS, Amazon EKS, or AWS Fargate based on your operational needs.

Modernize Application Architecture

Move Heroku processes into independently scalable web services, workers, scheduled tasks, and microservices.

Expand Networking Options

Use Amazon VPC, private subnets, security groups, load balancers, and private connectivity for more customized network designs.

Optimize Cloud Spending

Review application demand, compute sizing, storage, databases, and scaling policies to identify cost-optimization opportunities.

Access Broader AWS Services

Connect applications with managed databases, queues, storage, analytics, security, monitoring, and AI services.

Migration Process

A Controlled Heroku to AWS Migration Process

  1. 1

    Assess

    Review Heroku applications, dynos, databases, add-ons, config variables, domains, background jobs, and current platform usage.

  2. 2

    Design

    Define the target AWS architecture, networking, identity, containers, databases, monitoring, security, and deployment model.

  3. 3

    Pilot

    Migrate a selected application or service to validate compatibility, performance, scaling, and cost assumptions.

  4. 4

    Migrate

    Move application code, containers, databases, configuration, storage, scheduled jobs, and third-party services.

  5. 5

    Validate and Cut Over

    Complete functional, performance, security, data-integrity, and rollback testing before directing production traffic to AWS.

Comparison

Heroku vs AWS Comparison

Comparison Area Heroku AWS Opportunity
Platform model Managed application platform using dynos, buildpacks, and add-ons Broad cloud platform with customizable infrastructure and managed services
Containers Supports Docker images through Heroku Container Registry Run containers with Amazon ECS, EKS, or Fargate
Scaling Scale applications by changing dyno size or quantity Configure compute, container, and application scaling policies
Networking Common Runtime or Enterprise Private Spaces Design VPCs, subnets, routing, load balancing, and private connectivity
Databases Heroku Postgres and marketplace add-ons Use Amazon RDS, Aurora, DynamoDB, or self-managed databases
Add-ons Services provisioned through the Heroku add-on marketplace Select native AWS services or external providers independently
Deployment Git, buildpacks, pipelines, or Heroku Docker deployment Use CI/CD pipelines, container registries, infrastructure as code, and deployment services
Observability Heroku metrics, logs, telemetry, and add-ons Build monitoring with CloudWatch and other AWS observability services
Cost model Application resources and add-ons are purchased through Heroku plans Configure and monitor individual cloud services and resource usage

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the entire Heroku environment need to move to AWS?

No. Codimite can migrate selected applications, workers, databases, or services while other workloads remain on Heroku.

Can Heroku applications run on AWS without being rewritten?

Often, yes. Containerized or twelve-factor applications may be replatformed with limited code changes, although configuration, storage, networking, add-ons, and deployment workflows usually require updates.

What happens to Heroku Postgres during migration?

Heroku Postgres data can be exported using Heroku-supported backup tools and migrated to a suitable AWS database. AWS Database Migration Service may support ongoing replication for compatible migration scenarios.

How are Heroku add-ons migrated?

Each add-on is assessed and replaced with an appropriate AWS-native or third-party service. Credentials, configuration variables, integrations, and data must also be migrated and validated.

Can Heroku to AWS migration be completed without downtime?

Minimal or near-zero downtime may be possible through parallel environments, database replication, staged deployment, traffic switching, and rollback planning.

How long does a Heroku to AWS migration take?

The timeline depends on the number of applications, database size, add-ons, integrations, networking, compliance requirements, and modernization scope.
