Re: [PhillyOnRails] Rails hosting suggestions?
|
yeah, i've heard that about the historic dreamhost issues. but i've been using them for about a year now and i'm pretty happy. you can have unlimited domains, unlimited rails deployments, fastcgi support, point/click svn, point/click wordpress, etc.
i don't work for them or anything ;-) but if anyone wants to use my code and get me a discount ..

Their servers got over crowded, overloaded and failed constantly. I had like 70% uptime and when it was up, it crawled. It was a known issue and a lot of people left, including me. I went over to site 5. I'm pretty happy with site5, but their rails hosting is a little slow. Apps I have running locally run about 1/2 the speed on Site5, Mephisto being one specifically. It's also hard to figure out why a deploy isn't working too, but from what I hear that just goes with the rails territory. Also with site5, you can only have 5 ruby instances running at any time, so if you're running multiple apps and they spawn multiple instances, you run a chance of having them lock up or just randomly die. It generally isn't an issue but I've had problems where I needed to email tech support a few times (which respond very promptly btw). But until I can find another company that can compete with what site5 can offer for the same price, I'm staying with them.

Slicehost is great if you're willing to do a little sys-admining. I highly recommend it.

I also have to slices from Slicehost, they are fantastic, I've had no issues or complains. But Slicehost is basically a VPS, so you need to be willing to get your hands dirty with installing and setting up your server software. It's really easy though, I have one slice setup for RoR and I used Capistrano and Deprec to install all my software (Apache, ruby, rails, MySQL, and Mongrel) and deploy apps. They have great tutorials and a very helpful community.

The sites I've deployed have very little traffic thus far, but the one hosted on TextDrive seems to drag a bit more than I'd expect. I've heard a lot of really good things about Slicehost, and EngineYard as well.
