I have created an application using mySQL, Express.js, React, Node.js

My question is, which servers would allow me to deploy this application for free? I'm assuming TOMCAT wouldn't allow me to create it because I have a node.js / express.js as back-end.

Outside of Heroku, here are a few free and easy deployment options:

Serverless:

  1. AWS Lambda: https://amzn.to/2JgBFlL
  2. Azure Web Services: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/free/cloud-services/search/?&OCID=AID719825_SEM_UHdSDoOS&lnkd=Google_Azure_Brand&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIh7rFgt2k3gIVGMNkCh0wOwnqEAAYASAAEgKkP_D_BwE

Of course in the future if you have a super lightweight 'app' you're trying to deploy, Github pages is a good option.

Serverless is a really good option though because deployment becomes as simple as pointing the serverless service to a repo and committing to the repo. The rest of the deployment process is handled by in these cases, either AWS or Azure. And for AWS and Azure, you can easily link in a lightweight, free SQL DB.

The learning curve is no less daunting than learning to deploy on Heroku, but it is much much simpler once it's set up. Plus - you get the added benefit of scalability for free because AWS and Azure takes care of it for you!
