Where to upload Firebase Node.js client?

Question

I have build a Node.js simple client that monitors Firebase database changes and post emails using Nodemailer. It works great on my machine, Now I want to upload it to a server, But don't have any background. What is the most simple hosting service i can use? I don't expect high traffic at this time.

I can recommend Heroku. They allow you to upload your code in many different way. They also have a nice page that list all the methods that they have, you can check it out hear: https://devcenter.heroku.com/categories/deployment.

In addition to that, you can create an app for free, it will go to sleep, meaning it won't be up all the time, but it is a nice way to test and play with your deployment. Then it is just $7 a month to keep the lights on :)

There are many more hostings on-line, but I will argue that this one is the most straight forward with many resources for developers.
