Rails Deployment Roadmap
            • 2004 - FastCGI on Apache or Lighttpd
                            “a rocket that sometimes blows up in strange ways”
            • 2006 - Mongrel clusters behind Apache mod_proxy
                            “high throughput, but requires multiple moving parts”
            • 2008 - Phusion Passenger on Apache
                            “simply upload files, rack-based, REE/COW”
            • 2010 - Rails3 or Sinatra + DataMapper in a servlet container
                            “powerful/portable/scalable, rack-based, JRuby”




              3

Why JRuby?
            • Outperforms MRI in many cases... 2x to 10x
            • Gem extensions written in Java (no more segfaults)
            • A wealth of integration options available
            • Already works on App Engine with supported APIs




              4



Tuesday, October 13, 2009
Why Rails3?
            • More modular, load only what you need for each request
            • Intelligent gem management and deployment tools
            • First-class integrations with “other” ORMs like DataMapper
            • Better routing and Rack integration
            • Better Javascript integration and options
            • Rails conventions!




              5



Tuesday, October 13, 2009
Why Sinatra?
            • No learning curve... a simple and elegant DSL
            • Some data-driven apps don’t require MVC or ActionView
            • No need to extract the components we can’t use
            • New application instances can spin up quickly




              6



Tuesday, October 13, 2009
Why DataMapper?
            • Data mapped in your model, auto-migrations or no migrations
            • Text fields treated like associations, lazy-load by default
            • Create concise queries without using method_missing
            • Supports validations and legacy AR finders
            • Already works with dm-appengine wrapper




              7



Tuesday, October 13, 2009
Why a Servlet Container?
            • Various app servers to choose from
            • Everything you need in in the container
            • JRuby-Rack dispatches to Rack
               while providing access to servlet features
            • Access to Google App Engine APIs for Java
               via Ruby APIs that are feature compatible
            • Our tools allow you to develop in the container
               with the ability to integrate Java servlets

Tuesday, October 13, 2009
Install it Now

                    sudo gem install google-appengine



                            Everything you need installs as gems


              10



Tuesday, October 13, 2009
What is Google App Engine?
            • A cloud-computing platform
            • We provide the container and services
            • Run your web apps on Google’s infrastructure
            • Pay-as-you-go, with free quota to get started




              11



Tuesday, October 13, 2009
App Engine JRuby APIs
            • AppEngine::Users
            • AppEngine::Datastore
            • AppEngine::Memcache
            • AppEngine::Mail
            • AppEngine::URLFetch
            • AppEngine::Images

            • AppEngine::Labs::TaskQueue



              12



Tuesday, October 13, 2009
Dev_AppServer
            • Customized Jetty server
            • Local implementation of services
                   – LRU memcache
                   – Disk-backed datastore
                   – HttpClient-backed URLFetch
            • Emulates the production environment
                   – Sandbox restrictions may be inconsistent,
                    so run tests on production servers as well




              13



Tuesday, October 13, 2009
Deployment
            • Your app lives at
              – <app_id>.appspot.com, or
              – Custom domain with Google Apps
            • Deploying uploads
              – Static files
              – Resource files
              – Other metadata (datastore indexes, cron jobs)
            • Admin Console
                   – dashboards
                   – manage multiple versions
                   – view logs

Aloha on-rails-2009

  • 2. Ship your App in a Container JRuby on Google App Engine John Woodell Oct 5, 2009 2 Tuesday, October 13, 2009
  • 3. Rails Deployment Roadmap • 2004 - FastCGI on Apache or Lighttpd “a rocket that sometimes blows up in strange ways” • 2006 - Mongrel clusters behind Apache mod_proxy “high throughput, but requires multiple moving parts” • 2008 - Phusion Passenger on Apache “simply upload files, rack-based, REE/COW” • 2010 - Rails3 or Sinatra + DataMapper in a servlet container “powerful/portable/scalable, rack-based, JRuby” 3 Tuesday, October 13, 2009
  • 4. Why JRuby? • Outperforms MRI in many cases... 2x to 10x • Gem extensions written in Java (no more segfaults) • A wealth of integration options available • Already works on App Engine with supported APIs 4 Tuesday, October 13, 2009
  • 5. Why Rails3? • More modular, load only what you need for each request • Intelligent gem management and deployment tools • First-class integrations with “other” ORMs like DataMapper • Better routing and Rack integration • Better Javascript integration and options • Rails conventions! 5 Tuesday, October 13, 2009
  • 6. Why Sinatra? • No learning curve... a simple and elegant DSL • Some data-driven apps don’t require MVC or ActionView • No need to extract the components we can’t use • New application instances can spin up quickly 6 Tuesday, October 13, 2009
  • 7. Why DataMapper? • Data mapped in your model, auto-migrations or no migrations • Text fields treated like associations, lazy-load by default • Create concise queries without using method_missing • Supports validations and legacy AR finders • Already works with dm-appengine wrapper 7 Tuesday, October 13, 2009
  • 8. Why a Servlet Container? • Various app servers to choose from • Everything you need in in the container • JRuby-Rack dispatches to Rack while providing access to servlet features • Access to Google App Engine APIs for Java via Ruby APIs that are feature compatible • Our tools allow you to develop in the container with the ability to integrate Java servlets 8 Tuesday, October 13, 2009

  • 11. What is Google App Engine? • A cloud-computing platform • We provide the container and services • Run your web apps on Google’s infrastructure • Pay-as-you-go, with free quota to get started 11 Tuesday, October 13, 2009
  • 12. App Engine JRuby APIs • AppEngine::Users • AppEngine::Datastore • AppEngine::Memcache • AppEngine::Mail • AppEngine::URLFetch • AppEngine::Images • AppEngine::Logger • AppEngine::Testing • AppEngine::XMPP • AppEngine::Labs::TaskQueue 12 Tuesday, October 13, 2009
  • 13. Dev_AppServer • Customized Jetty server • Local implementation of services – LRU memcache – Disk-backed datastore – HttpClient-backed URLFetch • Emulates the production environment – Sandbox restrictions may be inconsistent, so run tests on production servers as well 13 Tuesday, October 13, 2009
  • 14. Deployment • Your app lives at – <app_id>.appspot.com, or – Custom domain with Google Apps • Deploying uploads – Static files – Resource files – Other metadata (datastore indexes, cron jobs) • Admin Console – dashboards – manage multiple versions – view logs 14 Tuesday, October 13, 2009
