Presentation: "Ruby VMs: A Comparison"

Time: Wednesday 13:00 - 14:00

Location: Stanford

Abstract: It wasn't long ago that there was just one way to run ruby scripts. The times have changed though, and now there's a wealth of Ruby interpreters to choose from. Should you run your Rails apps on JRuby, IronRuby, or MRI? Where does Rubinius fit in? What benefits might we see from MagLev in the future? In this presentation we'll take a look at all of the different Ruby virtual machines and how to choose what fits best within your enterprise.
