Subject: Who's using Ruby Enterprise Edition in production?
Hi.

A while ago someone had asked who's using Phusion Passenger in
production. The positive responses were overwhelming; thanks to all who
had replied!

Ruby Enterprise Edition seems to get a bit less attention than Phusion
Passenger, so we're wondering how many people use Ruby Enterprise
Edition in production. We need this information for marketing purposes,
and seeing that we're providing REE for free, we'd be really grateful if
you could take some time to reply to this message. And if you can,
please also tell us which websites are powered by REE and how much
traffic they get.

Thanks,
Hongli Lai

Apologies for cross-posting on mailing list. But I believe this is
rather important. :)

Hi

I've been using REE for the last 3 or 4 months (before we used
passenger with the normal ruby) at http://www.frozen-layer.com (all
the site is made in RoR except the forums)

Last month we served  3,705,600 pageviews to 251,562 unique visitors.

If you need more information or statistics feel free to contact me,
Thanks for the great job that you are doing on REE and phusion.

Regards

Jon

Hi,

Using Passenger and REE on http://cligs.ee (Events site in Estonia).
The site is in closed beta, so no real traffic yet, but we are
starting public beta next week.

Cheers,

We have been using REE along with passenger for around 6 months for
our Community Education Software. Our biggest client has around 50
page hits per minute between 8 am and 6 pm. It drops to an average 10
hits/minute after 6 pm.

We have 6 installations, of which 4 use REE.

I would love to use it on our servers, but REE is not x64 yet :-(

I am migrating Caltech's Rails apps to using Ruby Enterprise Edition +
Passenger. Right now the only sites running on REE are small, low
trafic stuff but I am eventually planning to rewrite all the web sites
Public Relations manages to run on Rails and when I do, they will be
hosted on REE + Passenger.

I converted to using REE when the last kinda serious bug was found in
Ruby 1.8.6 and number of the Linux distros' ruby packagers were having
trouble inserting patches w/o breaking Rails. A fixed REE was
available almost immediately and worked flawlessly so it seemed like
an ideal time to switch.

We tried using REE on an internal app, but ran into a problem with an
internal gem.  The gem has a shortcut to make it easier to access (MG =
MyGem) the classes (MG::Class instead of MyGreatgem::Class).  REE was giving
us errors that it could not find class MG::Class and this has prevented us
from using it so far.  We are continuing to investigate what it may be and
will be sure to let the list know if we find anything.

Hello,

http://www.byrecords.com , a Belgian independent music label runs on
REE and Phusion Passengers.
It is quick, smooth and it was easy to deploy.

HTH,

I have a proof of concept website called http://shovelchat.com. With a
cron-job scheduled polling of the Digg.com API, I list all the Digg
sites. Then you can click on one of those listing, and be brought to a
chat room based on that digg article.

The Chat room uses Juggernaut, a push server for rails. Juggernaut
uses a TCP/IP flash bridge to push javascript up to the browser.
Juggernaut is a seperate process in the background.

The website is ran using Phusion Passenger. The whole set up has been
running for at least 76 days straight, no problems. But I don’t get
any traffic, so that might be why.

But since I use Passenger, you have to wait a while for the website to
load. I haven’t figured out how to fix that quite yet. I know there is
a setting in the config that can take care of that.

Thanks for the great products, I makes things very simple, and I love
the benifits I get by running Phusion Passenger with Ruby Enterprise
Edition. I’m sure slicehost.com loves it too.

Keep up the great work,
taelor

Hi.

After losing our server we've switched to Passenger & REE here in big
photobank, visualrian.com. It's running for only about 5 days, but
everything's fine )))) And it was the easiest deployment we ever did.

Hi,

at <a href="http://www.espace.com.eg">espace</a> we use REE for almost
all our clients' production sites. Some of those generate millions of
daily page views. I am hoping the changes would be ported to 1.9 as
well since it is not clear when it will be done by the core team.

Currently not running REE, but I have been thinking about it. Recently
switched Passenger over to an Atom-based, low-power server to see how
Atom can handle my upcoming blog and might use REE to cut back on RAM
usage.

We use REE, dramatically increased performance of our online knowledge
base (Rails/Passenger/REE).

First Rails app for me as we're Windows desktop slaves right now, but
my long time Rails developer friend now at Oakley was impressed and
said it was the fastest Rails app he's hit in a long time.

Haywood Community College uses both Phusion Passenger and REE to serve
www.haywood.edu. When we released our RoR-based redesign in 2007, our
website was served using Mongrel clusters; during that time we
experienced all sorts of deployment headaches, restart issues and
mysterious server errors. We dumped the clusters for Passenger several
months later, and we were pleased. Before we relocated the site to its
current server, we evaluated the Apache2+worker MPM+Passenger+REE
setup. We switched over early last month, and we couldn't be happier.

Our traffic is about what you would expect for a community college in
western North Carolina: 49,532 visits over the last 30 days, with
14,703 unique visitors and 104,509 pageviews. I would imagine that
most of the benefits of our setup are lost on us due to our low
traffic, but for what it's worth, REE+PP handles the load
beautifully. ;-)

Thanks, Phusion.
