Interesting stuff in Rails 1.0 (a.k.a 0.14)
Need to upgrade to the new Rails release ASAP. Why (ChangeLog):
- Database-agnostic schemas (so on some level we can switch to PostgreSQL maybe)
- Plugins
- Speed: Rails 1.0 is twice as fast as 0.13.1 (on sample app)
- Better FCGI: Production mode goes mature. Hm, but in fact I thing to go in SCGI direction
- SwitchTower: deploy to several machines in paralel (decreasing down time). It's already part of the distribution.
- Easier session management
