It's been way to long since my last post. I've been busy at the 9-5 and also working on launching my first startup (Chooey.com).

I saw that Heroku allowed for PHP applications to now be deployed with their cedar stack setup. I thought I would give it a shot and see if I could get CakePHP running in the cloud. It only took me about 20 minutes of reading and tinkering before I got everything working perfectly.

I will be documenting CakePHP on Heroku with a simple blog I've set up at cakeblog.heroku.com. If you are interested take a look and if you have any questions feel free to give me a shout.

Check out Cake on Heroku!
