title: What are the advantages of the new Heroku Java support over Amazon Elastic Beanstalk
body: <p>We're trying to decide whether to host our play! framework and mysql Java app on Amazon's Elastic Beanstalk or the new Heroku Java offering. I'm having trouble figuring out what the advantages of Heroku would be. One <em>disadvantage</em> is that Heroku doesn't auto scale nodes like beanstalk does. But are there advantages I should know about?</p>
