Hey,

I'm trying to convince my management to consider Rails/Ruby. I need to build a list of large, enterprise, Production, ... sites implemented in Rails/Ruby.

A list with URLs, please.

Thanks, Jason

I'm trying to convince my management to consider Rails/Ruby. I need to build a list of large, enterprise, Production, ... sites implemented in Rails/Ruby.

Search the archives to find some others... one that hasn't yet been mentioned because I'd been asked not to is www.cardplayer.com.

We switched from PHP to Rails around June 2006. We do a good bit of traffic as well, particularly during the World Series of Poker in July/August. We averaged about 8 million *pages* per day for awhile.

And while Alexa isn't the end all be all, here's a sample of cardplayer.com, penny-arcade.com, and basecamphq.com (picked only because I know they too run on Rails).

Rails scales just fine. It's the database you have to think about :slight_smile:
