Mastering Rails application deployment
This book will show you from start to finish how to:
- Setup a VPS from Scratch
- Setup additional servers in minutes
- Use Capistrano 3 to deploy quickly and reliably
- Automate boring maintenance tasks
If you’ve got applications on Heroku which are costing you a fortune, this will provide you with the tools you need to move them onto a VPS. This includes running several Rails Applications on a single VPS – great for small side projects.
If you’re already running your app on a VPS but the deploy process is flaky – it sometimes doesn’t restart or loads the wrong version of the code – this book provides a template for making the process hassle free.
