Hulu.com on Rails
Just an FYI since i know this list likes knowing about some higher volume websites running Rails. Looks like the new video initiative with NBC/FOX called Hulu (www.hulu.com) is running on rails with nginx.

Another Ruby based framework written by Ezra Zygmuntowicz (from EngineYard and a number of other Ruby projects) and a team of developers.

I''m not entirely sure; you could ask Ezra in the Merb IRC channel (#merb). He was involved getting it setup I think. --Jeremy On Nov 14, 2007 9:55 AM, Jordi Bunster <jordi-eYZ6pAdIjG5AfugRpC6u6w@public.gmane.org> wrote:> On Nov 13, 2007 11:05 PM, Jeremy McAnally <jeremymcanally-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> > wrote: > > > Trivia fact: It''s using Merb on the backend. :) > > So, nginx <--> rails <--> merb, or no rails at all?

interesting so its a slim-down rails like framework that only uses the components you need instead of embedding them in the actual framework...

Yup, basically. There''s a Merb IRC channel (#merb) and mailing list if you''re interested in more. I don''t want to clog up the Rails list with all this Merb chatter. :) --Jeremy On Nov 14, 2007 11:32 AM, AD <straightflush-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote:> interesting so its a slim-down rails like framework that only uses the > components you need instead of embedding them in the actual framework... > > > > > > On Nov 14, 2007 9:39 AM, Jeremy McAnally < jeremymcanally-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote: > > > > Another Ruby based framework written by Ezra Zygmuntowicz (from > > EngineYard and a number of other Ruby projects) and a team of > > developers. > > > > Find out a little more here: http://www.merbivore.com/ > > > > --Jeremy > > > > > > > > > > On Nov 14, 2007 9:25 AM, AD <straightflush-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote: > > > interesting, what is MERB ? > > > > > > > > > On Nov 13, 2007 11:05 PM, Jeremy McAnally <jeremymcanally-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> > wrote: > > > > > > > > > > > > Trivia fact: It''s using Merb on the backend. :) > > > > > > > > --Jeremy > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > On Nov 13, 2007 10:54 PM, <straightflush-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote: > > > > > Just an FYI since i know this list likes knowing about some higher > > > volume > > > > > websites running Rails.

So, as I remember starting this thread, I found a techcrunch article (and apparently confirmed by a hulu developer) that it is indeed built on Ruby on Rail and not Merb. Just thought I would help clarify, link below, one of the bullets says "Hulu is built on Ruby on Rails" http://www.techcrunch.com/2008/01/24/hulu-discusses-private-beta-suggests-public-launch-time-frame/ Adam On Wed, Nov 14, 2007 at 12:05 AM, Jeremy McAnally <jeremymcanally-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote:> > Trivia fact: It''s using Merb on the backend. :) > > --Jeremy > > On Nov 13, 2007 10:54 PM, <straightflush-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote: > > Just an FYI since i know this list likes knowing about some higher > volume > > websites running Rails.
