I have been using Ruby on Rails for a large distributed systems (using Sidekiq) deployed across over 100+ servers.
Gems like 'bluepill' and 'god' have been instrumental in deploying and ensuring mission-critical processes like elasticsearch, and redis are always up. This system has been in production for over 4 years, and we're still cranking :)

- sanderjd 8y agoFair enough, that sounds similar to the system I maintained for a similar length of time. I came away thinking it was not great - error prone, expensive to run, and hard to keep running reliably - from which I developed the interest in better options that led me to ask the question in this thread. I guess as usual, YMMV.
