Migrate a Heroku (Node.js) server to Amazon S3


Currently I have a Heroku server running some Node.js code. I use this server as a webhook to receive a POST request from API.AI (Dialogflow) information.

Before starting to research and all the funcionability of Amazon S3, I wanted to see if is possible migrate this Heroku server to Amazon S3 and maintain the API.AI webhook functionality.


Solution

  • No, this isn't possible.

    Amazon S3 is an object storage service. It can be used to host static websites, but not websites that require any server-side logic. (Amazon does offer other services that can run Node.js code, like EC2.)
