Introduction> Introduction # When you are ready to deploy your Ruby on Rails application, there are many valid setups to consider. This tutorial will help you deploy the production environment of your Ruby on Rails application, with PostgreSQL as the database, using Puma and Nginx on Ubuntu 14.

Requirements to Follow This Tutorial> Requirements to Follow This Tutorial # You need to have nginx and Node.js installed, and there are already well written tutorials about these topics on DigitalOcean:

Introduction> Introduction # In a traditional mutable server infrastructure, servers are continually updated and modified in place. Engineers and administrators working with this kind of infrastructure can SSH into their servers, upgrade or downgrade packages manually, tweak configuration files on a server-by-server basis, and deploy new code directly onto existing servers.

Introduction> Introduction # When you are ready to deploy your Ruby on Rails application, there are many valid setups to consider. This tutorial will help you deploy the production environment of your Ruby on Rails application, with PostgreSQL as the database, using Unicorn and Nginx on Ubuntu 14.

Introduction> Introduction # In this guide, we will be setting up a simple Python application using the Flask micro-framework on Ubuntu 14.04. The bulk of this article will be about how to set up the uWSGI application server to launch the application and Nginx to act as a front end reverse proxy.
