Not a Kubernetes fan? The state of PaaS in 2025
Kubernetes won the containers orchestration war. But has it made deploying your apps easier?
Let's explore some of Kubernetes extensive app developer tooling, but mainly what the PaaS space looks like in 2025; 18 years after Heroku made it popular.
Is Heroku still around? What about Cloud Foundry?
And what are those new comers (fly.io, railway, porter.sh, etc.) worth?
Did the Cloud giants replace them all?

Software Developer for 15+ years, my favorite topics are containerization (Docker and Kubernetes), building tools, Continuous Integration and, of course, core Java development.
Having recently joined VMware, I work on CNCF, Tanzu and Cloudfoundry Java buildpacks.
In my spare time, I work on various open source projects : from Twitter bots written in NodeJS or Go, to Android apps !
