    • Heroku's guiding influence the Twelve-Factor App methodology
      • A codebase is always versioned and it can have multiple deploys
      • Declare and isolate dependencies explicitly (always)
      • Configuration should be stored in the environment
      • Backend services should be treated as attached (loosely-coupled) resources
      • Strict separation of the build, release, and run stages of an app
      • An app in execution is a process or many processes
      • Services should be exported through port binding
      • An app should scale out through its process model
      • Faster startup and graceful shutdown is the way to app agility and scalability
      • Development and production (and everything in between) should be as similar as possible
      • The app should just log the event not manage it
