What is Ruby on Rails?

Rails is a full-stack framework for developing database-backed web applications according to the Model-View-Control pattern. From the Ajax in the view, to the request and response in the controller, to the domain model wrapping the database, Rails gives you a pure-Ruby development environment.

Mongrel Vs. FastCGI:

Looking for a performance boost for your Rails application? Please see our cPanel Mongrel Setup Instructions. Mongrel is an excellent replacement for FastCGI when it comes to high-speed deployments of Ruby on Rails. See This Site for more information about Mongrel.

What is Mongrel?

Mongrel is a fast HTTP library and server for Ruby that is intended for hosting Ruby web applications of any kind using plain HTTP rather than FastCGI or SCGI. It is framework agnostic and already supports Ruby On Rails, Og+Nitro, and Camping frameworks. Mongrel is the latest technology in Rails acceleration and is what we are currently using on our latest servers.

What About Typo?

Typo is a popular blogging software package that's powered by Ruby on Rails. Typo will work on our servers whether your Rails instance is running via CGI or Mongrel. See the Installing A Typo Blog article in our Customer Wiki for a helpful guide on setting up Typo. For more information about Typo, visit Typo's Site.
