Hello all,=20
=20
I'm looking for a couple of things... But I figured the wealth of =
intelligence here could very easily help me figure them out.
=20
#1 I am looking for a networking toolkit like Twisted (for Python) for =
use with Ruby.
=20
#2 Can anybody state any enterprise level applications that are built in =
Ruby? I'm trying to convince others of the power and usefulness that =
Ruby can/could have (for them, I already see/use it), but since all they =
care about is "Yeah, well show me where somebody is using it at =
enterprise-scale" ... So, I figured I'd ask.
=20
Since I figure people will ask what I mean by "enterprise-scale" ... =
What I mean is distributed systems, message-queues, server proxies based =
on a naming system, load balancing, automatic failover ... Those kinds =
of things. The things that are used @ enterprise levels when trying to =
build systems that can scale to 10000 users hitting multi-million row =
databases with complex queries... I'm talking about building systems =
the size of google, or of eBay, or, of amazon. =20
=20
So, any information you can provide (links, names, etc.) that can help =
me in my endeavors to prove that Ruby is enterprise ready, is/would-be =
very much appreciated.
=20
I've looked all over the internet, but haven't found anything useful =
along these lines... This is the kind of information that is needed when =
I as a programmer want to go to the management tree of any company I =
work for and say "Hey, let's use Ruby" ... and I get the questions... =20
=20
Anyways, I believe I've made my point, so, any answers that can be =
provided are definitely of value to me... Thank you one & all.

opinions do not in any way reflect Amazon.com policy. My interest in =
Ruby is simply my personal desire for productive programming solutions.
