RailsMachine has announced their project Moonshine, which provides a pure Ruby interface to Puppet and is essentially custom-built to simplify Rails deployment and management:
One of the things that separates Moonshine from other solutions like Chef and Sprinkle is that out of the box, Moonshine comes with recipes for the same Ubuntu/Ruby Enterprise Edition/Apache/Passenger/MySQL stack that’s in production use at Rails Machine.
We’re pretty excited about this, for multiple reasons. It’s another Ruby company developing in and around Puppet, and it’s a great, simple way for Rails developers to take advantage of both Puppet and the RailsMachine stack.
The next step is to get the ShadowPuppet pure Ruby interface imported into Puppet. It will complement the existing language rather than replacing it, but we haven’t really settled all of the details yet.
this is such great information. thanks for the insight.
Actualy it is just released, so there are too many bugs. But this a good idea and I hope it will develope in something great.
