From the Console to Terraform: import your existing Clever Cloud infrastructure as code (IaC)
Nobody starts with Terraform. You create your first application in the Console, add a PostgreSQL database with Clever Tools, then a Redis instance, a Cellar bucket, and a “temporary” staging environment that is about to turn two.

Top 3 sovereign alternatives to Heroku: deploy your applications without dependency
