[CODE4LIB] Rails Hosting

2010-01-14 Thread Kevin Reiss
Hi, I was curious if anyone could recommend a hosting service that they've had a good ruby on rails experience with. I've been working with bluehost but my experience has not been good. You need to work through a lot of hoops just to get a moderately complicated rails application properly. The

Have you looked at Heroku (http://heroku.com/)? I've only used their freebie plan (so I have no idea how they compare pricewise), but it's been fantastic to get Ruby apps running there. Dreamhost also provides Passenger to their customers (http://wiki.dreamhost.com/Passenger) so that might be an

Hi Kevin, Although I can't recommend any hosting based on personal experience, a while back I had bookmarked a recommended (by another code4libber) hosting site: Slicehost at http://www.slicehost.com/ I think they pretty much get out of the way and let you do what you want, development wise.

Hi Kevin, I'm going to recommend slicehost also. Again, I haven't used it but I met the (former) owner. He sold the business to rackspace, which has an awesome reputation in the cloud computing world. They are #2 behind amazon. Rosalyn On Thu, Jan 14, 2010 at 11:40 AM, Doran, Michael D

I can attest to Slicehost, which Michael suggested. I have used it for several projects. One has java/tomcat intensive applications--Cocoon/Solr/Orbeon. The other is running game servers haha. It'll run Rails as well as anything, although I have not used slicehost for that in particular. I

Re: [CODE4LIB] Rails Hosting

2010-01-14 Thread Ross Singer
I think one thing to consider between Heroku and something like Slicehost, is what exactly you have the resources/willingness to support. One of the things I've really liked is that to get an app running on Heroku is that I basically just have to worry about my Ruby app, not maintaining a server

FWIW, I was going to mention VPS as an option, but it sounded like *maybe* you'd been working under a managed hosting environment, so Heroku seemed like a natural fit to your question (easy Rails installs with support for a wide variety of libraries/common dependencies), which is why I mentioned
