(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — Web hosting provider VEXXHOST (http://vexxhost.com) announced last week it is now offering support for Ruby on Rails 3, which was undergoing compatibility testing for the past weeks.

New and current customers of VEXXHOST can now run any Rails 3 applications by creating them from their cPanel control panel, with plans priced from $3.99 per month.

The company also offers Linux web hosting and reseller web hosting services with nearly 100 percent uptime.

VEXXHOST says it is the only cPanel web host to offer support for Ruby on Rails 3.

In a regular cPanel environment, the backend that serves Rails content is Mongrel. However, the Mongrel project currently does not support any Rails 3 application because it has been ported over to become a Rack application.

VEXXHOST says it uses “one of the most powerful and efficient Ruby on Rails back-end which is Passenger, in order to serve its Rails content.”
