Is the ruby ​​on a rails webrick server ever used in production?

Question

In a situation where the main server (apache) is offline, is it always acceptable to run the ruby ​​on rails application on the built-in webrick server? Or should I run local apache. I should have it available locally, and it would be very rare when it ever worked locally, but if I needed it to be better to go and install apache or have a batch file that activated ruby ​​script / server? everything should work just like a regular Apache online server.

thanks.

Answer 1

Not. Webrick is not a production web server.

Thin and unicorn would be a good choice - Heroku works subtly, while Github rules a unicorn.
