It's possible to setup NATS protocol on heroku?

I've seen a lot of documentation and tutorials how to setup HTTPS and Websockets on heroku, but it's possible to setup another protocol like TLS or NATS?

If it's possible how can I do that?

Solution

  • Unfortunately, no.

    Inbound requests are received by a load balancer that offers SSL termination. From here they are passed directly to a set of routers.

    The routers are responsible for determining the location of your application’s web dynos and forwarding the HTTP request to one of these dynos.

    Heroku offers only http/https routing for applications hosted on it.
