Engine Yard Private Cloud

Scalable Application Architecture

We run some of the world's largest Rails sites on our Dedicated Clusters: application performance introspection, caching technologies, partitioned datastores, and file system sharding. When it comes to scaling, we've seen it all (or at least most of it), and we know what works and what doesn't. And it's all built into our management technologies and deployment architectures.

Unique Requirements

We have years of experience catering to customers' unique requirements. If at some stage you require a dedicated infrastructure due to a need for higher i/o consistency than a public cloud can offer, or a need to establish and verify the physical location of your data for compliance or regulatory purposes, we will work within your unique requirements to deliver the best solution for your business.

Ruby on Rails Expertise

Having a problem with Ruby or Rails? Chances are very good that we've seen (and fixed) that problem before. Our Rubinius team sponsors the RubySpec test-suite and maintains the complete test framework for Ruby standard compliance. We even maintain Ruby 1.8.6, the mainstream workhorse Ruby version.

Fractional & Dedicated

Engine Yard offers two levels of Private Cloud functionality. With our Fractional Plan, your application runs on high capacity servers with a database on dedicated disk storage. With our Dedicated Plan, the entire infrastructure is dedicated and tuned to your requirements.
