Ruby on Rails Hosting with RVM, Bundler, and Passenger

Ruby 3.3 via RVM

RVM is pre-installed on all Ruby hosting plans. Use rvm use to switch between Ruby versions per project, keeping your Gemfile.lock consistent across development and production.

Ruby on Rails 7.x Support

Rails 7.x with Hotwire, Turbo, and Stimulus is fully supported. Asset pipeline, Active Record, Action Mailer, and Action Cable all work correctly on our environment.

Bundler for Gem Management

Bundler 2.x is available globally and within RVM gemsets. Run bundle install after deploying to install all gems from your Gemfile without dependency conflicts.

Passenger and Puma App Servers

Passenger 6.x integrates directly with Apache for seamless Rails deployment. Puma is also available if you prefer a threaded server with a smaller memory footprint.

SSH Access for Deployment

SSH access lets you pull from Git, run bundle install, execute rake tasks, and restart Passenger — all from your local terminal using familiar commands.

PostgreSQL and MariaDB

Rails works best with PostgreSQL and we make it available on all plans. MariaDB is also available for projects that prefer a MySQL-compatible database.

Redis for Caching and Background Jobs

Redis is available as an add-on for Rails caching, Action Cable pub/sub, and Sidekiq background job processing. Pair it with your Rails app for fast, scalable async operations.

Free SSL Certificate

Every domain gets a free Let's Encrypt SSL certificate. Rails force_ssl mode works correctly with our configuration, keeping all traffic on HTTPS automatically.

NVMe SSD Storage

Fast NVMe SSD storage reduces Rails asset compilation time during deployment and keeps database-backed page loads responsive under real traffic.

Git-Based Deployments and Capistrano

Deploy by pulling from your Git repository over SSH or configure Capistrano for automated multi-step deployments with asset precompilation and database migrations built in.
