First, I don't think that Rails (and similar) will become obsolete in a few years. Personally, if it's a serious project, I would go with the stack you know the best. Now, if you're willing to learn something new, I would recommend that you try Phoenix http://phoenixframework.org/ http://phoenixframework.org/. It similar to Rails in structure, and Elixir (built on top of Erlang VM) is also similar to Ruby (syntax-wise).

+1 vote for Elixir. I am learning it at the moment. Enjoyed the Ruby (syntax) with some functional programming capability, but the biggest selling point for me was the fact that it runs on the Erlang VM. PS. Don't forget: http://exercism.io/languages/elixir http://exercism.io/languages/elixir

Elixir seems like a great language, but its library story is still lacking a lot of things to make for a fast web development. This will probably change in the next couple years, however.
