I don't know how SQL Server from *nix will for for you, but deploying isn't a thing so simple that "you drop a file here and you're ready to roll". It requires a lot of thinking and often a re-thinking based on the initial results. Often it takes me 3 rounds to get a good deployment environment, without counting DB communication issues. Guess Zed will agree with me on this: If your company is "constrained" to windows environment (that includes IIS), you should find a workaround... hey, you could even add pen [1] to the equation and do some load balancing to a bunch of mongrel via ISAPI rewrite: IIS -> ISAPI rewrite -> Pen (cygwin) -> Bunch of Mongrels. If your decisions have height at your company, use a scenario that makes you feel better, nothing stops you, all we want is that you be happy :-) Your questions are welcome, but ignoring issues regarding DB<->App communication (I guess since you're running just one instance of your application) isn't right. There are things inherent to each solution that you must know (or at least try), even if you coded your app in a "magical" framework like rails.
