Rails Hosting

Rails Logo

All of our standard shared-hosting packages accomodate Ruby on Rails applications. From just over $11 a month (USD), you can be running a Rails website with PostgreSQL, MySQL, or SQLite databases. PLANET ARGON offers a 24 hour installation turnaround, so you can be up and “rolling on rails” by this time tomorrow!

At PLANET ARGON you can deploy your Ruby on Rails application with any combination of the following tools:

  • Lighttpd
  • Mongrel
  • Pound
  • Capistrano

To learn more about how customers are managing their hosting accounts with PLANET ARGON, visit the PLANET ARGON Documentation project.

Please contact us if you have any questions about hosting your Rails application at PLANET ARGON. Also, be sure to check out the Rails Hosting FAQ for additional information.

What are customers have to say…

My clients need the kind of site that is typically hosted on a dedicated server—not because of the traffic, but because they need to be able to configure things their way. Rather, they need me to be able to configure things their way. You provide as close an approximation in a shared hosting environment as there is to dedicated or VPS.

With this latitude comes a need for a particular kind of support. One of the reasons I like hosting with you is that you relieve me of the network support responsibilities. I work hard on code and design issues, but don’t have a lot left over for server configuration, troubleshooting, backups and maintenance. That’s why it’s great that you guys take care of all of that. But, beyond that, the stuff I’m doing is on the edge, literally. I have configurations of edge rails running on your servers right now! With David’s help, I’ve been able to get as close to complete control over the environment as I need and I feel confident you, as distinctly compared to your competitors, know the issues involved in Rails apps.”_
