Platform as a service vendor Heroku has made a number of changes to its infrastructure recently, and it says those improvements have decreased median app deployment times. Speed improvements range from 31 percent faster for developers using Node to 48 percent faster for developers coding in Python.
The company says the performance improvement isn’t only making developers more efficient, it’s improving their quality of life. “Being able to deploy code and iterate on ideas quickly is a big part of developer happiness,” Heroku blogged.
