Suggestions for Ruby on Rails host? - GoFuckYourself.com

brandonstills · 05-22-2012, 12:09 AM

Any recommendations for hosting companies that can do Rails? Hit me up. Prefer hosts that I can do some customization and aren't cluttered behind tons of proprietary tech like CPanel. Barebone systems ok if not. Just ssh and root. No PHP, Apache, or other bloat that I would need to work around.

Does it have to be a specif ruby/rails-hoster like http://www.engineyard.com/ (or highlevel l ike http://www.heroku.com/) ?

I would just go with a small VPS from wherever and then beef it up or buy a dedicated server once you need the extra power. Installing ruby,rails,nginx with mod_rails isn't much work.

If you don't need a ton of bandwidth, I really suggest you checkout linode.com

You get a clean install of whatever linux OS you want, and you can delete and reinstall the OS anytime you want, reboot etc. It comes with nothing so you install what you want yourself. Starts at $20 a month, it's great for messing around getting things going.

Then I'd move to something dedicated for a big live site. But linode is the best for getting things going

Oh, and there's slicehost too, but I'm not sure if they are as good since rackspace bought them.

It's like 10 commands on a fresh OS install to be up and running.
