Using Ruby for Reliability, Consistency, Speed - CNX2014

Talk at Exact Target Connections 2014

Ruby is just over 20 years old. It's no longer young or hip, and that’s a good thing! In the last decade, Ruby has matured as a web technology. It's being used in many successful companies out there such as Hulu, GitHub, and Bloomberg. The ecosystem is comprised of many stable libraries and tools to handle most common web tasks, allowing you to focus on adding features to improve your product and better serve your customers. We'll talk about how you can build scalable and reliable software, but still maintain fast development turnaround by leveraging the maturity and creativity of the Ruby community.
