Rails + Blue Box = Scales Well

Our rails cluster customers are pushing 100+ Mbps bandwidth doing 45 million hits a day. Can your host do that? We have the experience, the expertise, and the ability to help you grow your site from its development roots, to the number one position.

Typical Rails Deployment

A typical rails deployment involves three dedicated servers and a pair of hardware load balancers. Two application servers sit in front of a MySQL / NFS server and provide both reliability as well as application performance. As your traffic ramps up, we can continue to add additional app servers, split off NFS onto its own box, add in a Memcached server or beef up your database hardware. The design of every site is unique and each taxes hardware in different ways, so there is no one size fits all solution.

You Need A Company With The Experience Scaling Rails Sites

Once your site starts becoming popular, we become a fantastic resource. We work with customers doing 45 million hits a day across large 10 server rails clusters. We know what it takes to help you optimize your database, work with Memcache, or implement solutions such as Amazon’s S3 to help with bandwidth management. We have the resources and bandwidth your application needs to scale.
