A newbie on Rails... I am quite experienced at developing fully fledged sites in a variety of languages - but mainly based around .NET and perl [not together :-)]. I am considering deploying a new solution in RoR and through pestering etc, have decided to go for a fully functional data intensive project in RoR. I have some questions.
Why is mySQL not the typical default DB? I'm used to building up tables by hand...I'm aware there is a faster way of doing it in RoR - should I be old fashioned and comfortable or plunge right in to the Ruby way? Hosting companies? Can anyone recommend any cheap development servers, that we can all work remotely? Prob inane questions - but my experience with RoR is zero! Thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
