This looks like a very popular new business model for the startups. Take any existing or upcoming langugage/framework like php, RoR, django, node.js etc. etc. and start creating a dedicated hosted platform for that a la Heroku. And start counting the money flowing in.

Just doing a "git commit; git push; cap deploy" on your own app and feeling confident in the outcome is not an insignificant amount of work. I can't imagine what it would be like to take an upcoming environment and create a platform around it to let anyone deploy, run and be backed-up without thinking.

So, if you can pull this off and make it look easy, then take my money.
