Unprecedented Web Development Productivity
With Ruby and Rails developers are deploying applications in weeks that used to take months in Java. What’s the secret? With Convention Over Configuration, say good-bye to those noisy XML files. Rails is fanatical about being DRY – as in Don’t Repeat Yourself. You manage your domain model in one place, and Rails takes care of the rest. Add the radical simplicity and power of Ruby to the mix, and the result is web development as you’ve never experienced it before.
Obtiva and Ruby
Obtiva’s developers have used Ruby on Rails to deploy everything from Web 2.0 start-ups with Ajax intensive interfaces, to internal derivatives analysis tools for hedge funds. We understand the ways Rails approaches problems differently than you’re used to, and we can help guide you through the obstacles you’ll face as you put your web development on Rails. We’ll also show you how to get the most out of Ruby and Rails by embracing the Agile practices of test-driven development and refactoring.
