Life Beyond Rails: A Brief Look at Alternate Web Frameworks for Ruby
Before we get started, let’s address the elephant in the room. Rails is great. It really is what you need for large scale production applications most of the time. It has history.

RVM 1.16
RVM 1.16 is now available. This is a big release that includes new features as well as the stabilization of many existing ones. The most exciting new addition is binary ruby installs.

This will greatly speed u

Today we are happy to announ

When the team was formed earlier in the year, our first job was to expand our stack with MongoDB. However, we felt it would be a disservice to you, our customers, if we added a NoSQL datastore into the stack without first updating the relational databases that we support. So, we de
