Projects

Merb

Lightweight, fast and modular MVC Ruby web framework. Excellent for high performance dynamic pages and web services.

Thin

Thin is a Ruby web server that glues together 3 of the best Ruby libraries in web history: * the Mongrel parser, the root of Mongrel speed and security * Event Machine, a network I/O library with extremely high scalability, performance and stability * Rack, a minimal interface between webservers and Ruby frameworks

Ruby/EventMachine

Ruby/EventMachine is a fast, simple event-processing library for Ruby programs. It lets you write network clients and servers without handling sockets- all you do is send and receive data. Single-threaded socket engine- scalable and FAST!

Swiftcore Swiftiply

Swiftiply is a highly optimized clustering proxy for web applications (currently supports: Rails, Merb, IOWA, Ramaze, Camping, and Nitro, with the ability to support many more). It increases application performance in a few ways. First, it uses EventMachine for network traffic (eventmachine is an ... [More] event-based asynchronous network library which uses epoll on Linux for high network performance). Secondly, it reverses the way Proxies normally work by letting the nodes in the pool connect to Swiftiply with persistent TCP connections. This removes the delay of having to create a new TCP connection for every request, and makes it easier to maintain your cluster since nodes can be added and removed from the pool simply by starting new processes on a server.

Ebb

Ebb aims to be a small and fast web server specifically for hosting web frameworks like Rails, Merb, and in the future Django.
