As you know, we’ve partnered up with Heroku as our infrastructure sponsor again this year. But what you might not have realized is that you’ll be able to leverage a ton of Heroku Add-ons in your app! Most add-ons have a free tier, but, like last year, Heroku wanted to give you access to even more, so they’ll be making the first paid tier free for a number of add-ons (see below) during the competition.

Once the competition starts, you’ll be able to install these Heroku sponsored add-ons, right from your team’s dashboard here on railsrumble.com. It’ll look something like this:

And the list is pretty incredible!

• Heroku Postgres
• Heroku Redis
• Redis Cloud
• Heroku SSL
• MongoLab
• Librato
• SendGrid
• Bonsai Elasticsearch
• Papertrail
• Logentries
• Fastly

Don’t forget, registration opens on the 26th!
