I am looking for a NodeJS deployment platform.
Currently I have the server deployed on Heroku wherein if your server doesn't get a hit in 30 mins, it goes to sleep. Then when the app pings the server in the form of API call the server takes time 10-20 seconds to get back which is gighly undesirable.
Solutions read elsewhere :
Write a small JS script to continuously ping your server in every 20 mins. But that won't work now because Heroku from 2015 has imposed a criteria that free servers will be awake only for 18 hours in a day.
Also the least tier which allows 24 hours up time is costing 7 dollars per month which I cannot afford due to high dollar conversion in my native currency.
Hence looking for a PaaS for NodeJS that allows 24 hour up time in a day for FREE even for a constrained period of time.
