RailsConf Europe 08: Nick Sieger (Sun Microsystems, Inc.), M
summary
Sun positions itself beyond Java by open-sourcing Solaris/OpenJDK/ZFS/DTrace and funding Ruby work; a concrete Rails app Project Keenai runs JRuby on GlassFish in production staging for six months with a closed beta for invitees. A connection‑pooling patch lands in Edge to help make Rails 2.2 thread safe by preloading classes to avoid lazy‑init races. A deployment tool Warbler builds WARs for Rails, Merb, Camping and Sinatra so four Ruby frameworks run inside a single Java app server (7 MB Sinatra deploy shown).
