Just My 2 Cents: "being able to deploy wherever" really crashes with "I have to spend 2 hours a week fixing queries/tuning databases" as soon as you hit the "6 month on a project" line, and your users are still waiting for that page to be shown in under 500ms. In the end, you saved money you didn't throw at, e.g., heroku, but you spent 2 of your precious 40 hours being angrier for no reason. And you lost several chances on making your app more awesome. IMHO world in 2015 is far better than 2014, and "good surprises" keep coming almost every month. With "players" as heroku, pythonanywhere, appfog, dotcloud, or - not really paas but who gives a damn - stackato, cloudfoundry on aws.....or even awesomer "please manage my environment" solutions like cloud66...it makes the "cost" argument less compelling.
