          					&lt;p&gt;
I am using &lt;a href=&#034;http://heroku.com/&#034;&gt;Heroku&lt;/a&gt; for my Rails apps and I am loving it, what&#039;s not to love about Heroku?! :) &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;

But I am also a Java developer, and like many others I am crying for a decent Java hosting provider. Bright future ahead: &lt;a href=&#034;http://www.stax.net/&#034;&gt;Stax.net&lt;/a&gt;. Stax will probably become for Java what Heroku is for Rails, which is awesome news.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;

You can apply for a beta account and start playing with some of the templates available from Stax; basic servlet support, wicket, etc.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;

For testing purposes, I decided to try creating a JPublish based application and to host it at Stax. 10 minutes later and the app was up and running, you can see it here:&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;

&lt;a href=&#034;http://jpublishstaxdemo.florin-patrascu.staxapps.net/&#034;&gt;JPublish @ Stax.net&lt;/a&gt; &lt;small&gt;(an application based on the JPublish hello app available for &lt;a href=&#034;http://code.google.com/p/jpublish/downloads/list&#034;&gt;download&lt;/a&gt; at Google.)&lt;/small&gt;

&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Drop me an email in case you&#039;re interested to install your own JPublish app in the cloud at Stax, and make sure you visit their Wiki page for more Stax related details: &lt;a href=&#034;http://wiki.stax.net/w/index.php/Main_Page&#034;&gt;Stax Wiki&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
More details to follow :)
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
