Product Description

This short cut is an introduction and guide to Mongrel, a fast, versatile RubyWeb server. If you build or manage Web applications, this will be a usefulreference as you set up and use Mongrel in your development and productionenvironments, as well as a handbook for how you can extend Mongrel to suityour own needs.
In addition to covering how to use and extend Mongrel, we also review anumber of topics that we consider "Best Practices" for modern software development,deployment, and performance testing. We discuss these in thecontext of using Mongrel, but they should be considered applicable to anysoftware project. Our own work has always benefited from seeing the techniquesof others, so we hope that sharing the experience, approach, andphilosophy that went into designing and developing Mongrel will be interestingand helpful for your own pursuits.

Design Patterns in Ruby
Design Patterns in Ruby documents smart ways to resolve many problems that Ruby developers commonly
encounter. Russ Olsen has done a great job of selecting classic patterns and augmenting these with
newer patterns that have special relevance for Ruby. He clearly explains each idea, making a wealth
of experience available to Ruby developers for their own daily work."
—Steve Metsker, Managing Consultant with Dominion Digital, Inc.
This book provides a great demonstration of the key 'Gang of Four' design patterns without resorting
to overly technical explanations. Written in a precise, yet almost informal style, this book covers
enough ground that even those without prior exposure to design patterns will soon feel confident
applying them using Ruby. Olsen has done a great job to make a book about a classically 'dry' subject
into such an engaging and even occasionally humorous read.
