Network Solutions enhanced web hosting gives developers a quick and easy installation process for Ruby on Rails applications.

(PRWEB) – Network Solutions® hosting platform now supports Ruby on Rails with one click application deployment.  Ruby on Rails (RoR) is a popular, open source programming framework that makes developing web based applications quick and easy.  Unfortunately, the process for installing RoR applications in most hosting environments is not so quick and easy.  With most web hosting platforms, developers must have a firm understanding of UNIX to deploy a RoR application.  Additionally, most RoR developers find the integration process to be a time consuming manual process. Fortunately, Network Solutions has simplified and streamlined the integration process by providing a one click deployment framework, allowing developers to deploy applications faster than before.

“We heard from the developer community that it’s often difficult to integrate Ruby on Rails applications in hosting environments,” said Bill Jolly, director of Hosting Product Management for Network Solutions.  “Our hosting team saw this as an opportunity to differentiate the Network Solutions hosting platform from the competition by pre-configuring our servers and implementing a quick and easy way to install RoR applications.”

Adding Ruby on Rails with a hassle free Application Manager is just one more way Network Solutions is working to make their award winning hosting platform even more attractive to Web developers.   In September, Networks Solutions added Joomla, PHP Bulletin Board (PHPBB) and OSCommerce to its open source library, and increased is bandwidth and storage capacity of its web hosting packages.
