An Update on Heroku

The article discusses Heroku's official blog update announcing a transition to a 'sustaining engineering model.' This means the platform will prioritize stability, security, and reliability over introducing new features. The author criticizes the vague corporate communication, interprets the move as merely 'keeping the lights on,' and concludes by stating their intent to migrate their remaining project off Heroku due to concerns about Salesforce's long-term commitment.
