hello folks, I would appreciate any help with deploying cerbos to heroku, maybe there some articles or something
(google search failed me on this one)

Hi Dimitriy, I haven't tried deploying to Heroku personally, but I would try building a Docker image starting with the Cerbos image as a base and adding your policies and `.cerbos.yaml` config file. You can then deploy that image using <https://devcenter.heroku.com/categories/deploying-with-docker|Heroku's >`container`<https://devcenter.heroku.com/categories/deploying-with-docker| stack>.

Cerbos's config file supports environment variable expansion so that you can for example use `${PORT}` to configure the port to match what Heroku expects.

One caveat is that Cerbos is generally deployed inside a private network so doesn't have any built-in authentication mechanism; I think if you deploy to Heroku like this then anyone will be able to send requests to the Cerbos PDP server over the public internet.
