It shouldn't surprise anyone to find that the number of books about the Ruby language, and about Web development using Ruby on Rails, has soared over the last year. Many books tell you how to write Rails applications, but very few tell you how to put them into production. Deploying Rails Applications, published recently by the Pragmatic Programmers, does try to answer these questions, and does so quite well, introducing a variety of programs and techniques that can make the difference between a painful deployment and a pain-free one.
