JRuby on Rails makes this all possible today, leveraging the best of the Java platform. It's difficult to deny that enterprise Java scales very well and has a wide range of deployment options. It's also impossible to deny the appeal of true agile web development with Ruby on Rails. Rails developers using JRuby get the best of both worlds, combining the best of of Java's enterprise services and Rails' agility.

This session will demonstrate how to deploy JRuby on Rails applications both in Java EE application servers and in more "traditional" Rails style; how to integrate Rails with Java services and APIs such as Enterprise JavaBeans, Java Messaging Service, and Java Transaction and Security APIs; and how to effectively and easily manage JRuby on Rails apps using clustering services and Java Management Extensions.
