Salesforce is essentially shutting down Heroku as an evolving product, moving the cloud platform that helped define modern app deployment to a " [1]sustaining engineering model " focused entirely on stability, security and support.
Existing customers on credit card billing see no changes to pricing or service, but enterprise contracts are no longer available to new buyers. Salesforce said it is redirecting engineering investment toward enterprise AI.

No, Saleforce degraded their service as soon as they took over. It's been a slow death ever since.
If Salesforce is not extracting a pound of flesh every year from each customer they have, they're not happy.
