In April 2025, Heroku unveiled its most ambitious platform yet: Fir, which marks a decade-long milestone for the company. Built on Kubernetes, Fir boasts enhanced dyno options, cloud-native buildpacks, and seamless integration with OpenTelemetry.
Remora Backup has been working closely with Heroku to fully support Fir, and we’re pleased to announce today that offsite backups of your Heroku Postgres database is now possible on the Fir platform.
You can see the details of how this new functionality works in our Dev Center article.
