Getting ready to start a new commercial web site and looking at web hosting with Rails and EngineYard is very pricey and DreamHost.com scares me a little. Anyone have good results with DreamHost and Passenger? Any other suggestions for a new startup?

I would suggest you to check for a vps like slicehost, linode or rackspace instead of a shared hosting Regards On Sun, Dec 13, 2009 at 5:17 PM, Craig White <craigwhite-BQ75lA0ptkhBDgjK7y7TUQ@public.gmane.org> wrote:> Getting ready to start a new commercial web site and looking at web > hosting with Rails and EngineYard is very pricey and DreamHost.com > scares me a little. > > Anyone have good results with DreamHost and Passenger? > > Any other suggestions for a new startup? > > Craig > > > -- > This message has been scanned for viruses and > dangerous content by MailScanner, and is > believed to be clean. > > -- > > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group. > To post to this group, send email to rubyonrails-talk-/JYPxA39Uh5TLH3MbocFF+G/Ez6ZCGd0@public.gmane.org > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > rubyonrails-talk+unsubscribe-/JYPxA39Uh5TLH3MbocFFw@public.gmane.org<rubyonrails-talk%2Bunsubscribe-/JYPxA39Uh5TLH3MbocFFw@public.gmane.org> > . > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk?hl=en. > > >-- def dagi3d(me) case me when :web then "http://dagi3d.net" when :twitter then "http://twitter.com/dagi3d" end end -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Hi Craig, I think we [1] can help, we offer managed Ruby on Rails VPS hosting so you get all the good of a VPS without even managing the server stuff.

Even if you stretch to one of their VPSs, it''s still pretty dreadful for commercial stuff (for practice/home use it is fine) So, cheap and cheerful maybe, suitable for business production use?

Heroku is also a good option. We are happy with them.

You really shouldn''t be hosting a commercial website on unreliable shared hosting... Dreamhost works at times, but you get what you pay for. You probably want to look at setting up a VPS at linode or slicehost.

Yup. I regarded Heroku as a nice environment for development and staging purposes: quick git based deployment, 1 free thin instance (packaged in a dyno as they call it). The blocker was SSL - they charge $100 monthly just to support one single certificate. Fortunately there''s a workaround now: http://wojciech.oxos.pl/post/277669886/save-on-herokus-custom-ssl-addons - basically you can host multiple applications with one shared multi- domain certificate (and pay this outrageous $100/mo only for one certificate). Now I''m migrating stuff to Heroku. And dumping most Slicehost VPS servers. BTW I go to Slicehost whenever I need VPS. Haven''t tried webbynode - but their ready Rails stacks seem cool.
