Ruby On Rails Development –A Viewpoint From Today’s Scenario

After taking a choice to launch a Web 2.0 project, independent software vendors (ISVs) can get inundated with thousands of thoughts, regarding the future project and its performance. Nevertheless, the initiative of choosing between various Web technologies accessible at the moment may bring in some uncertainty. What would be more advantageous, Silverlight, Adobe Flex, JavaFX, Ruby development, or which exactly?

In reality, each technology has its particularities and, depending on the type of a planned project, you can desire the one that better meets all your requirements. If you are taking into consideration Ruby development, there are specifics well worth your attention.

Ruby on Rails is an easy, but nonetheless powerful open source Wed development situation. Ruby development entered enterprise market by virtue of its apparent benefits, including fewer codes, integrated testing, litheness of the Model-View-Controller design pattern, and swift Web development enabled by this technology. For example, it takes a Ruby developer around 15 minutes to produce a new blog engine and around five to create a new image search system.

The notable thing about Rails is that it has its own philosophy, two of them are emphasized:

1. Convention over Configuration: According to this theory most part of configuration data can be mislaid by implementing practical conventions (Meetings can surely be overridden with configuration, when there is a requirement to do that).

2. Don't Repeat Yourself: As for Ruby development, it means that each constituent of any Web application is specifically located and there's no need to replicate it several times across diverse files. If a developer uses, for instance, the Active Record module of Rails, there's no necessity to specify database column names in class definitions. This information can be reclaimed from the database based on the class name. This theory is functional not only in Ruby development, but further technologies, as well.

 Several Ruby developers also suggest the third opinion which is

3. Quick Turn-Around Time. When a developer grants an integrated Web server and an integrated language, it is feasible to see the results of code changes straightaway. This adequately reduces the amount of code-debugging work.

The viewpoint of Ruby development has appealed to many Web 2.0 companies and, as a consequence, became the foundation for such well-known projects, as Yellowpages, Twitter, BaseCamp, CrunchBase, etc.

As any other Web application framework, Ruby on Rails has its positive and negative views. However, if rapid Web development is what you are looking for, then Rails is a technology to be actively taken into contemplation. After all, its thinking significantly simplifies Web application development and thus allows energy to be aimed at the creative side of Ruby development process, making your project position out among the rest.
