According to my research, I have found nothing to indicate Rails/Ruby

It was only last week that we looked at Rails for the first time, simply
because we want our client-exposed interfaces to be RESTful. Perhaps
Rails is overkill, but do you think Ramaze or Sinatra are better because
they are more lightweight? They are still built on Ruby, which puts us
back in the boat: bridging the gap between Ruby and Java.

I found this article moments ago which discusses how to implement
ActiveRecord in Java. If I can get this to work in Rails with a custom
Java implementation that hooks into our Java data services, then my
problem is solved.

Rails is an end-to-end solution.  Either use it as one...

I don't agree with this comment. In my experience there is nothing wrong
with using special aspects of one framework alongside other
technologies.

Anyway, thanks for the info.


If you look at JRuby rather than 3 year old articles about AR in Java, you might be in a very happy place. JRuby lets you call Java from Ruby and there would be essentially zero cost to it. You can run Rails under JRuby, too.
