Heroku
Get a Static IP for Heroku apps in one click. Solve Heroku's dynamic IP limitations. Route inbound/outbound traffic through a load-balanced QuotaGuard proxy to access restricted APIs, firewalled databases, and third-party services that require IP allow-listing.
Heroku’s dynamic infrastructure is powerful, but it lacks one critical feature: a fixed, static outbound IP address. Because Heroku dynos rotate IP addresses frequently, it is impossible to connect your app to third-party services, banking APIs, or legacy databases that require strict IP allow-listing (whitelisting).
QuotaGuard is the recommended solution for giving your Heroku app a permanent identity.
- One-Click Provisioning: Available directly from the Heroku Elements Marketplace. Instantly provision a load-balanced pair of static IPs and configure your app with a single CLI command—no server management required.
- Database & API Access: Need to connect to a MySQL, PostgreSQL, or MongoDB database behind a corporate firewall? Use our SOCKS5 support (via QGTunnel or native libraries) to securely route traffic from your dyno to your locked-down data sources.
- Enterprise-Grade Security (Shield): Shield uses SSL passthrough, and neither Static nor Shield ever decrypts your outbound payload. Shield's difference is the hop between your app and the proxy: Static's hop uses the plain HTTP proxy protocol, while Shield encrypts it with TLS. Use Shield for regulated data such as HIPAA or PCI workloads. That supports customers' HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 requirements.
- No Hard Stops: We understand that traffic spikes happen. Unlike other add-ons that cut you off, our "No Hard Stops" policy means we keep processing your requests even if you exceed your limit, giving you time to upgrade without downtime.
