Joyent

Ruby on Rails

Since Joyent’s applications (Connector, BingoDisk) are written in Rails, and we run our applications on Accelerators – the exact same infrastructure we sell to customers (say “hello” if our bits pass each other in the digital hall) – you can be sure that we know how to get the most out of Ruby on Rails applications.

Joyent has also been at the fore-front of Ruby on Rails development in many capacities from the earliest days of the project. Our TextDrive hosting product (now part of Connector and Accelerator) was the first commercially available hosting service for Rails.

Joyent Connector represents one of the most comprehensive (and complex) use of the Rails framework to date. We have had Joyent employees (past and present) that currently serve on the core commit team for the Rails project. Joyent continues to provide all the infrastructure for the Rails project on top of our Accelerators.

Joyent plans some exciting continued contributions to the Rails community in the coming months.
