Optimized for 64-bit Ubuntu 8.04 LTS, this stack contains everything you need to deploy your Ruby on Rails application.

  • Ruby on Rails-centric stack with many popular Ruby gems* pre-installed
  • Choice of plain Ruby or Ruby Enterprise Edition (see Important Notes below)
  • Choice of Web servers: Apache (with Passenger Phusion) or Nginx
  • Choice of MySQL 5.0.51 or PostgreSQL
  • Memcached
  • Git and Subversion clients
Included Gems (partial list):
  • Rails 2.3.2 and 2.2.2
  • mysql, postgres, sqlite3-ruby
  • memcache_client
  • Testing frameworks: rspec, shoulda, factory girl, mocha, zentest
  • AWS-related: amazon-ec2, amazon-ecs, amazon-fps-ruby, amazon_sdb, aws-s3, right-aws

  • image_science and rmagick
  • ruby_openid
