On: Announcing AWS Elastic Beanstalk for Node.js

what is the best node.js PaaS solution out there? This doesn't look as nice as Azure's offering that I've been using. Who do people like the most?

I setup an Python Flask server on Azure last week. I was pretty impressed by the polish on a lot of the MSFT Azure management tools. I had also tried AppFrog, Heroku, and AWS Beanstalk in the past.

OpenShift also does Node + WebSockets now: https://openshift.redhat.com/community/blogs/paas-websockets

Modulus looks pretty good: https://modulus.io/

I haven't tried them out yet, but their support team has been very responsive answering my questions.

There is appfog, heroku, nodejitsu, and a few others. Afaik, nodejitsu is the only one with full websockets support at the moment.
