What’s the best alternative to heroku today for someone that doesn’t want to do any sysadmin and just dump a Django site and database somewhere?

Won’t there be ongoing OS updates, database updates etc? If there’s a new security hole do I have to run to a computer and run a patch, etc?

I just want someone else handling all that.
