My first question after reading the title was "Why?"
From the article:
"JA: All the problems we had (licensing, testing, deployments) could have been overcome. We could have used workarounds, written our own deployment framework, etc. What is comes down to is that we both really enjoy working with Rails and we enjoy the Rails community and the tools and libraries available. One of the best parts about running the show is that we get to do what makes us happy."
- awa 16y agoNope. FTA: RB: If the platform was holding up fine, what prompted the change of architecture? RC: Money.
- javery 16y agoRob (RC) and I (JA) tend to disagree on things all the time. For me it wasn't as much about the money as the pleasure of using Rails, and I know Rob also loves using Rails. The money was basically what made the decision easy, here were our choices: 1) Continue to use a platform that costs more and isn't as much fun. or 2) Use a platform we both love using and works out to be cheaper. Pretty simple decision really.
