No one said it would be easy
Posted on Tuesday, January 16, 2007 in Ruby On Rails
Elliot bemoans the fact that hosting a Ruby on Rails application on shared or virtual hosting is too hard, and I can attest to this.
I’ve mentioned the issues I’ve had with Typo many times, and although Mephisto is better the box is still working much harder than it should be. Rails may be a great framework for development, but hosting the results is different story all together.
Like Elliot I also have a couple of internal applications that run quite happily, but they are running on dedicated (albeit low-end) boxes – just like the big boys do. I suspect that both of these would fail if I tried to move them to shared or virtual hosting.
