Spiral Hosting, an all-Ireland hosting solutions provider, late last week unveiled Ruby on Rails hosting to all its new and existing web hosting clients.

Rails is aimed at web developers who wish to produce content-rich applications quickly and easily. Ruby on Rails and Ruby Gems is available on all linux-based servers. Customers will find a new section on Ruby Gems in their hosting control panel.

Peter Armstrong, director of the Irish HSP explained, "Spiral Hosting are delighted to include Ruby on Rails at no extra cost on all our web hosting and reseller hosting packages. We are delivering leading technology solutions through our high performance servers and feature-rich hosting packages. Ruby on Rails is an innovative and powerful development framework that allows applications to be created with less code, minimal configuration and maximum simplicity. It's perfect for creating Web 2.0 applications like blogs, forums, online communities, e-commerce and other projects."
