But what about a particular sub-class of deployment targets? While Capistrano still works well for real servers, the world continues to move towards containerized environments, and Kubernetes in particular. I’m not even sure that it’s actually possible to build a framework that would abstract all the different ways to deploy applications, from bare metal to containers.

So today, in honor of this impluse, I’d like to discuss the latest attempt to de-stressify deploying Rails apps on Kubernetes- Kuby!įor years, the rails community has been clammering for Active Deployment, a magical out-of-the-box mechanism for deploying applications. Some developers are okay with this! Rubyists like us, on the other hand, prefer to concentrate on the creative side of programming, and we’re always looking for ways to minimize the routine. YAML, Helm, (and the compass and straightedge for that matter) are all tried-and-true tools, but using these alone might require too many steps to accomplish the task. Much as the ancient Greeks struggled with squaring the circle, so too do modern web developers struggle to find a convenient way to deploy their app on Kubernetes.
