Ruby on Rails is an open source web framework that is optimized for programmer happiness and sustainable productivity.
Rails works with a wealth of web servers and databases. For web server, we recommend Apache or lighttpd, running either FastCGI or SCGI, or Mongrel. For database, you can use MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, Oracle, SQL Server, DB2, or Firebird. Just about any operating system will do, but we recommend a ‘nix-based one for deployment.
