Hey John, thanks for the kind words! I just wanted to add one datapoint to back Andy's response: the resource allocation to dotCloud has been the same for the last 6 months, and there is no change planned to that allocation as of today. In other words, if you were satisfied with our service over the last few weeks, you are likely to continue to be satisfied for months to come.

I would worry about an exit strategy too if I were in your shoes - but just know that your trust and success as a customer matters more to us than any bajillion of dollars we would stand to make if we betrayed it.

In fact I'm pretty sure we can "make a bajillion dollars" and continue to earn your trust :)

Thanks for doing business with us John! Docker is in part thanks to you.

Wow, its people like this (both comments from docker/dotCloud) that make you really love a service. In fact, I would have put my next side project on dotCloud if the prices weren't steep - but I get that they're for businesses and not for side projects.

I guess DO is good for that stuff (at the very least! - I'm sure they're good in general as well, I've actually been reading/discussing them a lot - mostly for hobby projects though).

EDIT: Forgot about dokku/flynn as a PaaS (plugin?). Also learned about other services in the thread which I'll be looking at.
