Ruby on Rails is a fast growing web application framework which aims to increase the speed and ease with which database-driven web applications can be created. SME's can greatly benefit from this wonderful framework as it helps them to create powerful web applications in a matter of few weeks that formerly might have taken months to develop thus reducing development cost and time to market. RoR can be used to:

• Build customer-centric small/medium business websites.
• Deploy a web-based solution for internal purposes in very limited time.
• Automated testing of web applications.
