Easy way to prevent Heroku idling?

by

You can install the free New Relic add-on. It has an availability monitor feature that will ping your site twice per minute, thus preventing the dyno from idling.

More or less the same solution as Jesse but maybe more integrated to Heroku… And with a few perks (performance monitoring is just great).

Availability monitoring

Note: to all those saying it doesn’t work: the important part in my answer is “availability monitor”. Just installing the addon won’t help. You also need to setup the availability monitoring with the URL of your heroku app.
