- callmeed 18y agoAre you looking for something low-cost or more of a high-end managed service? MediaTemple has RoR grid containers and other hosts support Rails now, but I don't know of a turnkey solution ... although Heroku looks interesting. Seriously, if you get a slicehost slice w/ Ubuntu Hardy, Apache and mod_rails, you can get your app up in < 3 hours. Plus, there's something to be said for getting on the server and learning how to do some things yourself.
- danramteke 18y agoLooking for something with a low barrier to entry, but with room to grow. Something not unlike AWS, but totally tuned for Rails. I'm thinking about building such a solution if nothing else works out. For my personal use if nothing else.
- LogicHoleFlaw 18y agoPerhaps there is an AWS machine image tuned for Rails?

- danramteke 18y agosweet deal!
- qhoxie 18y agoSomething to consider (not quite turnkey depending on how you look at it) is deprec. Quite a few people still swear by it: http://www.deprec.org/ http://www.deprec.org/
