Heroku and Iris couch vs Cloudant

Have you got any experience/thoughts on using Iriscouch or Cloudant with Heroku? Do you have to use Cloudant (as it is offered as an add-on)?

What are the pros/cons?

I'm working on an application that is heavy in geo information and needs to be distributed globally. Is any of the above mentioned faster (lower latency) in any particular region (mostly interested in Europe and Australia)?

Thx

I don't know what Iriscouch have to offer in this regard, but Cloudant's search feature lets you search in geographic regions. Also, when you sign up you can choose where you want your account to live. You could pick one in Europe or one that is close to wherever Heroku's servers are. If it's not the right place, you can always move later.
