What difference is the "production app" distinction supposed to make? Its not clear from neither the article nor the linked comment. If it's an attempt to suggest that Heroku isn't suitable for production use, that's going to need a lot of argument backing it up.

A production app has stateful services that retain data between deployments. The ambition of the 5 minute production app is to make this faster than doing it on Heroku.

The article doesn't make this case at all. Heroku is suitable for production and we didn't intent to suggest otherwise.

Typical heroku apps have services like postgres and redis that maintain state between deployments. This is very typical, and trivial to provision. Still not sure what you mean. Are you sure you are at all familiar with heroku?
