Bob Wise, the CEO of Heroku, Salesforce\u2019s cloud platform as a service, has left. A Salesforce spokesperson confirmed the news<\/a> to TechCrunch in a statement via email. <\/p>\n

\u201cBob Wise has left Salesforce for his next career move,\u201d the spokesperson said. \u201cWe app<\/a>reciate all that Bob has done for Salesforce and Heroku and we wish him well.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bob Wise joined Heroku as GM from Amazon Web Services, where he was Kubernetes GM and head of the open source program office. Wise was promoted to CEO of Heroku in 2023, according<\/a> to his LinkedIn profile.<\/p>\n

Wise\u2019s rise to CEO came over a decade after Salesforce acquired Heroku for $212 million in cash. The platform allows programmers to build, run, and scale apps across a number of programming languages, including Java, PHP, and Go.<\/p>\n

On its website, Heroku claims that it\u2019s been used to develop more than 13 million apps to date.<\/p>\n

Under Salesforce \u2014 and Wise\u2019s \u2014 management, Heroku has faced with a number of setbacks, including a security breach where attackers were able to obtain an access token for a Heroku account that was used for automation purposes.<\/p>\n

In August 2022, Heroku announced that its free plans would be discontinued, citing fraud and abuse as reasons for the change. Some users weren\u2019t pleased, understandably \u2014 and made their opinions known on social media<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur product, engineering, and security teams are spending an extraordinary amount of effort to manage fraud and abuse of the Heroku free product plans,\u201d Wise said in a blog post at the time. \u201cWe will continue to provide low-cost solutions for compute and data resources.\u201d<\/p>\n

The competition for platform as a service has grown fiercer in recent years, with startups like\u00a0Porter,\u00a0Railway,\u00a0Render,\u00a0Fly.io, and\u00a0Clever Cloud\u00a0vying for a slice of Heroku\u2019s business with compelling pricing and features. Wise made efforts to engage with the developer community, posting a public roadmap of Heroku\u2019s features and soliciting suggestions. <\/p>\n

His departure is certain to have an impact on Heroku\u2019s efforts to claw back market share. <\/p>\n

Relatedly, Heroku is still without a CPO after its previous CPO, Andy Fawcett, moved back to the U.K. to assume the role of VP of developer relations. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
