Fast development, flexible and scalable Ruby on Rails web applications are greatly enhanced when integrated with other supporting tools

Ruby on Rails

Ruby on Rails is an open source web framework that is 'optimized for programmer's happiness and sustainable productivity'.

Favouring convention over configuration, it allows developers to write smooth and sleek code.

Ruby Gems

A gem is a packaged Ruby application or library.

Ruby gems are very powerful and of great importance in the world of Ruby on Rails. They can easily be used to extend or change the functionality of a Ruby on Rails application.

Heroku

Heroku (pronounced her-OH-koo) is a cloud application platform: a new way of building and deploying web apps.

The service lets application developers spend 100% of their time on their application code, rather than managing servers, deployment, ongoing operations, or scaling.

Amazon Web Services

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a collection of remote computing services (or web services) that make up a cloud computing platform, offered over the Internet by Amazon.com.

The most central and well-known of these services are Amazon EC2 (cloud computing) and Amazon S3 (cloud storage).

Google Apps

Google Apps provides independently customizable versions of several Google products under your own custom domain name.

It features several Web applications with similar functionality to traditional office suites, including: Gmail, Google Groups, Google Calendar, Talk, Docs and Sites.

MongoDB

MongoDB (from \"humongous\") is an open source, high-performance, schema-free, document-oriented database.

The database is document-oriented, managing collections of JSON-like documents. Many applications can thus model data in a more natural way, as data can be nested in complex hierarchies and still be query-able and indexable.

Mixpanel

Mixpanel provides event tracking, real-time analysis, visitor retention analysis as well as improved funnel analysis.

Customers track events and actions specific to an application to see what features users are using the most and how they are trending. You don't have to wait 24 hours, you learn immediately after features are launched.

Websolr

Websolr is a managed, powerful, hassle-free full-text search service powered by Apache Solr.

Its major features also include hit highlighting, faceted search, dynamic clustering, database integration, and rich document (e.g., Word, PDF) handling. Providing distributed search and index replication, Solr is highly scalable.

Memcache

Memcached is a simple, fast and infinitely scalable in-memory object caching system. Dynamic web applications use memcached to store frequently used data, reducing database load.

The Heroku memcached add-on is built on the Couchbase distribution of memcached (Membase Memcached Server) which includes an advanced, per-user security model.

New Relic

New Relic is an on-demand performance management solution for web applications developed in Ruby.

The New Relic Plugin offers seamless integration with the Heroku platform enabling immediate and automatic access to New s comprehensive capabilities for monitoring, troubleshooting and tuning web applications.

SendGrid

SendGrid's cloud-based email infrastructure relieves businesses of the cost and complexity of maintaining custom email systems. SendGrid provides reliable delivery, scalability and real-time analytics along with flexible API's that make custom integration a breeze.

SendGrid solves the technical challenges, eliminating your email headaches, so that you can focus on your core product and meet the email demands of your business.

Apigee

Apigee makes working with APIs better, especially the Twitter & Facebook APIs.

By accessing the API through Apigee, you can receive significantly improved API rate limits when using OAuth authentication. This removes a major barrier for developers building Facebook & Twitter applications - with the Apigee add-on, you can now handle more requests and traffic than ever before and build a better app.
