Hello Hassan, Many traditional apps (not just Ruby/RAILS) are not designed with 3-tiered scalablity in mind. A common practice is to store app data to the file system. This is probably the number one issue with regards the the mentioned criteria. In this case the app would not be compatible in a load balanced system, unless some sort of network file storage is used. As an example of a pure 3-Tiered compatible app, Tracks is completely database driven, and can be easily scaled in an horizontal fashion.
