GitHub goes off the Rails as Microsoft closes in
- nailer 7y agoA pity, it thought Ruby to Elixir might be more of a logical progression re: scalability.
- jaredcwhite 7y agoThis headline is terribly misleading. GitHub uses and continues to develop in Ruby on Rails extensively for its web UI. All that's happening is that GH is breaking off pieces of its overall infrastructure (or building new features/services) and using lower-level/higher-performance languages well suited to those types of services. Shame on The Register for totally botching the intro to what was otherwise a very interesting piece about GH's technical evolution.
